Dear Coker Family, all of you are in my prayers today. Doc was well thought of by so many of us. I remember back when you guys hit Southport, FL. I knew what a great family you all were. Doc left us too soon. He was a great Father and a great man on earth. Just remember we have to be ready to meet him one day. You sons and daughter take care of Mom until then. Always remember Diana Cowan McQuagge loves everyone of your family. I don’t get out due to what COVID-19 did to me in 2020. Just...

Dear Linda and all the Family, This was a shocker and very hurting to me. He will be missed by all. I had an emergency that took me to Gulf Coast Hospital with the person I am caregiver of. I could feel Doc's spirit everywhere I had to travel from ER and all over that place. I needed him so bad to transport me many times. I talked to him. He heard me. So sorry, I did not make the service. But during all of this many thoughts and prayers have gone out and up for the entire family. I...

What a lovely service. I´m so glad I could be there hearing all the great stories. What a legend among legend! I wish peace for all of you, in due time.

Linda, We are so very sorry for the loss of your precious husband. It was evident from all the "Doc´s latest culinary endeavor stories", to the pictures in your office, and the excitement in your voice before Disney trips- just how much you truly loved him and spending time with him! Though he is now gone from this earthly world, we rejoice in knowing he is healthy and whole in Heaven with our Great Savior. We are certain he will be watching over you and the family in the days and weeks...

Linda and family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May God Bless you all!

Jimmy, I am so sorry for the loss of your Farther. I’ve never met him but could tell by your pictures over the years how much he loved his wife and family and how incredibly proud of his children and grandchildren he was. If we can do anything please let us know for as a work family, “We never walk alone”! Praying for you and your family.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

May God be with the family during this time of great sorrow. Sympathy and condolences to the family.
