Daniel C. Coffey 1947-2025

He was born Jan. 26, 1947, in Caldwell, North Carolina, a son of the late Paul M. Sr. and Willie Mae Fullbright Coffey.

Dan worked as a metal assembler for General Motors in Lordstown for 35 years, retiring in 2005.

He enjoyed baseball and was an avid Mahoning Valley Scrappers fan. He also enjoyed comedy, especially Red Skelton, and researching his family’s history and genealogy.

He was a kind, loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather, and will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Dan is survived by a son, Michael D. (Jennifer) Coffey of Wichita, Kansas. He also leaves behind three brothers, Paul Jr., Rick and Barry Coffey, all of North Carolina; five beloved grandchildren, Ashley (Zachary) Fellows of Cortland, Britney and Sarah Coffey of Wichita, Aaron Jackson of Cortland and Alivia Jackson of Howland; two great-granddaughters, Hollie and Genevieve; and a great-granddaughter soon to be born.

Besides his parents, Dan was preceded in death by a son, Quentin Coffey; three brothers, Benny, who died in infancy, Bill and Ronald Coffey; and three sisters, Doris Shinn, Tommy Jean Wagner and Trudy White.
