Our precious mother and Meme, Elizabeth A. Coffey, went to Heaven on Oct. 27, 2012, peacefully at home surrounded by her beloved family. She was born Dec. 6, 1927, to Lizzie and Wm. Blount in Poteau.
She married Paul D. Coffey, Feb.12, 1955. She was bookkeeper for their businesses, Coffey Construction, CEC Sand, H.D. Trucking and others. She was a loving, faithful and devoted wife.
She loved her family, Elvis and Lake Eufaula. She adored her granddaughters and great-grandchildren and the time she spent with them. She had a fun-loving spirit and was always about having a great time. She loved to travel and was thankful for the little things. She loved our Lord and was thanking Him always for the many blessings she received. She touched everyone she met with her fun, loving and generous heart.
