Rlee Coffman passed away Tuesday April 23, 2024. By her side were daughters Helen and Laura along with granddaughter Angie and the love of her life, husband JT. Rlee was known by many names, Mom, Mother, Momma, Nanaw but none more cherished than “child of God”. She was also known as a person that gave her entire heart to those she loved. She reserved a special place for her grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. If you were on a tight schedule when going to visit you needed to allow extra time to view the many photos of said grandchildren. Life took on a new meaning once she discovered FaceBook! She enjoyed sending dog photos or videos of babies and the newest photos of family and her little dog Wookie. When sharing her phone with her husband JT she was quick to point out that she had a small percentage of charge since he’d run the battery down. Many times she would be calling her son Larry to “straighten her phone out” she needed to be back on FaceBook. She had a healthy respect for FaceBook jail!
Rlee will be missed by all that had the privilege of knowing her; from the pharmacist at Sams to her beloved neighbor Laura. She made you feel important ......she was invested in what you had to say and was a great listener.
Her capacity of love was to be envied. She was devoted to her husband of nearly 78 years and still had a twinkle in her eyes when speaking of him. Their marriage was rooted in love and mutual respect. Their foundation was strong and built on the Word of God. They never stopped kissing or holding hands and JT summed it up by simply stating, “she’s a goodin”. It was fitting that Rlee took her last earthly breath holding hands with the love of her life. Rlee is survived by three children: Larry Coffman and wife Debbie, Helen Smith and husband Alton Wayne and Laura Nobles; Four grandchildren: Tricia Ginter and husband Warren, Angie Smith, Stacey Robertson and husband Jeff, Dawn Willeford and husband Roy; Nine great grandchildren: Kyle Glover and wife Vanna, Ashley Lynn Frey and Andrew Frey, Conner Smallridge and Lindsey, Courtney Throckmorton and husband Dustin, Emily Lee and Austin Lee, Hillary Moore and husband Louie, Jeffrey Robertson and wife Chelsee, Thaddeus Williford, Elise Willeford, Cydni Parker and husband Noah; Eleven great-great grandchildren.
