The world is a better place because Cohen was in it. He will be remembered as a man of integrity, a man who served God and Country, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a kind friend. Cohen is a man other men want to emulate. He had a profound impact on our lives. May the love of God and friends comfort and sustain the entire family today and in the days to come.

Dear Aunt Jean, Wanda, Hoyt, Brenda, Wade and families. I can't even put into words what my heart feels. Uncle Cohen was a wonderful man and I know there's a big, big celebration going on in heaven with Jesus and our other family members who have gone ahead of us! I wish I could be there to put my arms around each of you but just know that we love you all dearly and are praying for God to comfort you and help you thru this time. So many precious memories of times spent together! Prayers and lots of love to all of you, Love Lisa, Sean and Dustin

Dear Aunt Jean, Wanda, Brenda and Family
Our Hearts go out to you all during this time. Words won't express our sadness in the loss of such a wonderful man. Uncle Cohen was the last of his kind for sure. I remember his laughter and such good spirit about him. His love for family shined thru in everything. I know what he meant to daddy, and I hope he knew what he meant to all of us here. We love ya'll so much, even in distance and years between being together, you all mean so much to us.
Memories bring such joy even if so few, but Memories that will last a life time. I know Daddy was standing there waiting for him. He's Ok
You are always in our prayers
and in our hearts
Love and Deepest Sympathy

My heart, my thoughts, and soul all feel so overwhelmed by the news of your leaving us! I know, Beloved Cohen, that you are with family gone on before and our Heavenly Father! You are out of pain, able to walk, with ease and hear a pin drop! The music of the angels must sound so sweet to those clear ears!
Please be the Angel on the shoulders of those of us you have left behind, especially our Precious Jean as she recovers from her own earthly injury. Your passing has left a void that only time and prayers will help. You will always be loved, remembered with hugs and smiles, and talked about forever!! Super Huge hugs to YOU ALWAYS and thanks for being so kind to me in so many loving ways! You and Jean are Family to me!
