David Myung Wook Coan

David M. Coan passed away suddenly early on the morning of August 10, 2021. He collapsed while walking his dog on a quiet shady street near his home. David was born in Korea on January 2, 1980. He was welcomed as a son and brother into the family of John and Patricia Coan in April, 1986. David attended Everett Schools K-12 and graduated from Cascade High School in 1999. He served in the US Army as a Chemical Ops Specialist 2005-2011. During his time at Fort Lewis he was a member of the honor guard for the funerals of veterans. David was always interested in the medical field, and was weeks away from completing a Health Sciences Certification Program in Phlebotomy at Edmonds College. He was generous and empathetic and enjoyed meeting people and exploring his surroundings. David volunteered at PAWS where he adopted his beloved dog Mack. He liked educating himself on current events and was very knowledgeable about professional sports. He also enjoyed learning about his Korean heritage. He travelled to Korea several times with family and friends. He loved to cook, especially Korean food, and had perfected his Kimchee recipe. David was an organ donor, and the family was honored to donate his brain to a research program at the UW studying the effects of explosive sound waves on veterans who served in Kuwait and Afghanistan. He is predeceased by his grandparents and his Uncle Jim. He is survived by his parents, John and Trish; brother, Greg Coan; sisters, Monica Coan and Gina Kusumoto (Craig); nephew, Alex and niece, Emily.
