Loved and missed beyond measure.

Lived 22 years
Mt. Calvary · Hawesville, KY
Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace. Oscar Wilde
Life story
Coby was the youngest of three children, a wonderful father, and loved by so many people. More than he ever even realized. Coby loved music, hanging out with his friends and family, being a dad to Bryar and doing things his way. He was as stubborn as they come, but we loved him through it all.
