May 4, 1923 - June 28, 2014
Bean Station, Tennessee
Everett (EJ) Coffee, age 91, of Bean Station, TN, passed away Saturday, June 28, 2014 at his family home. EJ wrote his obituary in his own words: "I am a veteran of WWII and I served with the 32nd Division in the Pacific. I later joined the Air Force where I served out the remainder of my 29 years of service to this wonderful country. I was extremely proud to serve my country and I would do it again. I was not saved until I returned from WWII. I was very thankful that the Lord let me live to return home to my sweet wife Audrey after the war. After I was saved at the age of 24, I dedicated my life and heart to God when I joined the old Calvue Baptist Church. Later, Audrey and I moved to Blount County and we joined Morning Star Baptist Church in Maryville, TN. I have been a member of Morning Star for over 40 years. I missed the church when I returned to Bean Station, TN, after Audrey passed away. I enjoyed coming back to my hometown where I was born May 4, 1923. I spend a lot of time roaming the hills of Granger County with my faithful dog Shadow. My father William Ira Coffey and my mother Jane (Mallicote) Coffey passed away many years ago. I am preceded in death by all of my brothers and sisters. My wife Audrey (Hodge) Coffee went to be with the Lord January 19, 2004, after a wonderful love-filled marriage of 62 years. I am longing for the day when I join her in Heaven as we walk through the beautiful Pearly Gates with Jesus." Survived by good friend, Patsy Hess. The funeral service will be held at 7:00 pm, Tuesday July 1, 2014 at Smith's Trinity Chapel, with the Rev. Tommy Russell and Rev. Jim Claiborne officiating.
