Daryl Reid Cochran

Daryl Reid Cochran, age 72, passed away on October 27th, 2022. He was born on March 29th, 1950 to the late Max and Jean (Hostetler) Cochran and a graduate of the '68 class at Lake High School. Reared in Hartville on the Cochran family farm, Daryl left for Nashvillle to chase a dream in the music industry in his early 20's. From driving tour buses to stage management and even running the renowned Studio Instrument Rental of Nashville, he was enveloped in nearly every aspect of the industry. Quick with a raunchy joke, Daryl was sure to make a friend out of anyone and everyone he met. He was a rockstar, a friend, and a father.
He is survived by his son Chayton Cochran; sisters Ann and Jill Cochran; sister-in-law Linda Cochran; niece and nephew Megan (Fred) Saylor, Matthew (Katie) Cochran; many beloved friends and family. He is preceded in death by wife Teresa (Haltom) Cochran and brother David Cochran.
A memorial will be held on Saturday, November 12th at 10AM at the Werner United Methodist Church. Please bring a good story. Memorial contributions may be made to the people who helped Daryl most in his final months at the Marlboro Township Fire Department.
