It is with profound sadness that the family of Edward H. Coon announce his peaceful passing on May 10, 2021 at the age of 77 years old.
He will be lovingly remembered by all of his family: Eileen O’Reggio, life partner and best friend; children: Christopher Coon of San Clamente, California, Deborah Maloy of Plano, Texas, Jacqueline O’Reggio of Margate, Florida and Sandra O’Reggio of Douglasville, Georgia; Grandchildren: Zachery, Joshua, Elyia, Jackson,Caden, Anitra, Shaina, Rj, Sharde, Tiffany, and TJ; Great grandchildren: Olivia, Christian, and Ava (will be born Sept. 2021).
Edward was born in Ancon, Panama to Frank and Evelyn Coon. He spent much of his young life in Central Pennsylvania before joining the Air Force after high school. He then proceeded to obtain a Bachelor’s Degree from Kings College in Computer Science which over the years gave him plenty of opportunity to live and make many friends throughout the country.
He became a permanent resident of Florida in 1999 and has been employed by Memorial Health Care Systems for the past (17) years where he used his knowledge and experience to teach and to learn from his colleagues and friends.
He will surely be missed by all those who knew and loved him AND in the words of Ed Coon, if you truly knew him, “The fact of the matter is…” and “Goodbye.”
