Anna Perry wrote a sympathy message

“Mr. Cofer was a very special man. A proud Air Force Veteran who carried those core values throughout his life. I was blessed to know him and cared for him greatly. I pray for peace and comfort for his family and friends. Mr. Cofer always watched me to my car and kindly called me "young lady". He was a true gem. He will be sorely missed.”
