Donald E. "Red" COCCHIARELLA

Red and Geri were my God parents and the picture is of Red and my father on hockey team as young boys.

My husband worked Cooch at Donaldsons Inc in Baldwin WI for many years. Cooch was a great man, the stories he'd tell, the laughs between the guy's and the pranks. We are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Donald (`RED´) Cocchiarella was one of my favorite extended Donovan & Richie family members, as a lovely and caring Uncle to me. His "ear to ear smile" and magnetic personality and humor energy was most certainly one of a kind. I had the privilege and blessing to visit with Red last month visit two my brothers Patrick and Daniel. He shared great stories and memories of his life, Familia, marriage to Geri, children, grandkids and great grandkids, as well as his lifelong long and friendship...

He was such a nice man. I worked with him for many years at Donaldson Co. in Baldwin, WI. He could always make me laugh. Deepest sympathy to you all.

I am so sorry to learn about Cooch´s passing. I worked with him for many years at Donaldson Co. He brought laughter to every conversation!! I have so many great memories of him!

Polly, so sorry to hear about your Dad! My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. Eileen Stengel

I worked with Don (or Cooch as we new him) at Donaldson´s in Baldwin WI for quite a few years. He was one special person. So enjoyed working with him. His sense of humor was one of a kind. My deepest sympathy. Kathy Timm
