Dear Marsha, Aunt Betty, Uncle Don, Steve, Joe, Mike, Erin, Kelly, Dennis, and the entire Coffey family. I am so very sorry for your loss! John and I were very close in high school after we moved back from NJ. It was so much fun living up the street from the Coffey cousins. Although he was my cousin, he soon became my best friend. He was always looking out for me and trying to make me smile at a very tough time in my life. We had so many good times and great laughs together. He was such a practical joker too. I was the recipient of many of his pranks...he was bound and determined to get me to laugh and have a good time. Thanks to him, I did. I'm sure you too will find comfort in all of the wonderful memories you have and I am sure he is watching over you now and will be forever in your hearts. God bless you all. I will miss him very much. I was hoping some day he would come back this way and we could sit and talk and have some laughs together once again. I guess that will have to wait. RIP John. Until we meet again. I love you 'cuz'.
