Christopher Coburn Obituary
Chris was the kind of man you'd meet and instantly loved. He had a way with animals that absolutely no one understood. He enjoyed anything to do with the outdoors, especially hunting in the woods of the Northeast Kingdom. He was a jack of all trades and was always there to give you the shirt off his back to anyone in need.
Chris was just shy of reaching 30 years of employment at Temple Plumbing and Heating in Putney.
Above all, his three children were his pride and joy.
Chris is survived by his mother Gail Coburn, sister Deb (John) Davey, daughters Kayla Coburn, Kori Coburn (Eric Laurendeau) and son Colton Coburn. Stepchildren Kori (Alex) Jameson, Erelyn Griffin and Sean Griffin. Expecting grandson Griffin Jameson. Grand dogs Cash, Bane, Harper and Jasper. As well as many nieces, nephews, and great nephews.
Chris was pre-deceased by his father David Coburn
A celebration of life will held at a later date and burial will be private in Houghtonville Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Coburn Memorial Fund at any 802 Credit Union.
Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of the Fenton and Hennessey Funeral Home 55 Westminster St. Bellows Falls, VT.

A friend to all and a loving, dedicated family man. My heart and prayers to his family and lived ones. I didn't crossed his path too often but Chris always had a smile and kind word. He is surely missed.

I always remember Chris's amazing affinity for and love of animals as a kid; that was him for all his life. A lovely person.

SO, SORRY TO HEAR OF CHRIS'S PASSING. WHEN HE CAME TO OUR HOUSE TO DO PLUMBING HE ALWAYS HAD A SMILE, TOOK THE TIME TO CONVERSE ABOUT THE WEATHER, ANIMALS. I CAN STILL SEE HIM STANDING IN OUR LIVING ROOM.
IF TEARS WERE A HIGHWAY AND MEMORIES A LANE, WE'D BUILD A BRIDGE AND BRING THEM BACK AGAIN.
HE WILL BE SADLY MISSED. OUR THOUGHTS ARE WITH HIS FAMILY AT THIS TIME.
