Lynn Cochran
Entered into rest on Friday, January 10th, 2025 at the age of 85. He was the loving husband of 65 years to Judy Cochran, dear father of Terri (Keith) Moudy, Jeffrey Cochran, the late Rebecca Lynne Eufinger, and the late James Edmund Cochran, dear grandfather of Nicholas John (Jessica) Vollmer, Anthony Mitchell Ingracia, Kaitlyn Gerstenberg, Brett (Jennifer) Cochran, and Kayla (Jonathan Hadden) Cochran, loving great grandfather of Vivienne Gerstenberg, Jett Cochran, Melaina Vollmer, Anthony Paul, and one on the way. He is the cherished brother of Patricia Ann Simons, the late Kenneth Edmund and Karen Ruth Cochran, dear son of the late John Edmund and Mabel Ruth Cochran.
Lynn enjoyed golfing (8 hole-in-ones), bowling, and camping. He was an avid Cardinals baseball fan and never missed a game. He and his wife Judy traveled to Florida annually to spend some time on the water. They were animal lovers and had many special pets over the years. He was a former member of the Harvester Lions Club. He spent the majority of his career at Cupples Products and continued in the industry until his retirement. Lynn never knew a stranger and would strike up a conversation with anyone (whether they wanted to or not). Above all, his wife and his family was most important to him. He will be missed by all who knew him.
Visitation will be held on Monday, January 20th, 2025 from 12pm until the time of Service at 2pm- at Hutchens-Stygar Funeral & Cremation Center. Memorial donations may be made to the American Cancer Society or an animal charity of your choice.
