OBITUARY: Mrs. Cleva Estes (Stephens) Coffee, 84, Jane, Missouri, departed this life on Monday, November 5, 2018, after a recent decline in health. Cleva entered this life on May 30, 1934, in Jacket, Missouri, the second child of Ephraim and Mary Stephens. She lived all of her life in the Northwest Arkansas/Southwest Missouri area, where she met and married her husband of fifty-three years, Truman Coffee. Together they raised four children.
Over the years Cleva and Truman enjoyed many camping trips to Colorado, probably her most favorite place to go. They traveled extensively across the country in search of Depression glass. In her later years she enjoyed tending to her flowers and working in the yard. She was an excellent cook, enjoyed crocheting, embroidering, watching MSNBC and listening to music, but her most favorite thing to do was quilting. She made many beautiful quilts over the years and was already thinking about the next one she would make before finishing with one.
She is survived by all four of her children, Shanna Hardin (Kevin), Sherry Coffee, Leann Coffee and John Coffee; three grandsons, Travis, Alex and Vaughan; three granddaughters, Brandee, Sara and Kate; and a brother, Troy. She was preceded in death by her husband; her parents; and a brother, Monroe.
Funeral services for Mrs. Coffee are 11:00 a.m. Friday, November 9, 2018, in the Anderson Chapel of the Ozark Funeral Homes with Bro. Hank Gorman officiating. The family will receive friends on Thursday evening from 5-7:00 p.m. in the funeral home chapel. On-line condolences may be sent to the family through our website, www.ozarkfuneralhome.com.
