Keith's obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mr. Keith "Neil" Cochran Sr., a man of many appealing qualities and endearing charms. Keith, who was also known as Neil, was born on August 6, 1958, and sadly left us on March 13, 2025.
Keith will be remembered for his wit, his easy-going attitude, and his kind, gentle spirit. A man of simple pleasures, he found joy in a cup of coffee, watching his favorite TV shows COPS or MASH, and spending time near the water. His energy and charisma were as vast as the ocean he loved.
He is survived by his devoted wife of many years, Patty Cochran, and leaves behind a legacy of love in his children and grandchildren. His son, Keith Cochran, will forever carry on his name and spirit. Keith's impact on his grandchildren, Keith Cochran III, Cassidy Cochran, and Rachel Hardin, will continue to be felt and seen in the generations to come. His legacy is also honored by his daughter-in-law, Lisa Cochran, and his brothers, Gary and David Cochran.
Keith's life was rich in experiences, and he lived it with an unwavering resolve and a great sense of humor. However, his journey was not without loss. He was predeceased by his mother, Nelda Cochran, his father, Jo Cochran, his sister, Linda Cochran, and his aunt, Lois Sivits. While there is sadness in this farewell, there is also comfort in knowing that Keith is now united with his loved ones who passed before him.
Keith's passing leaves a void that will never be filled. His wit, kindness, and easy-going demeanor enriched the lives of those around him, and his memory will endure in the hearts of those he loved and who loved him. Rest in peace, Keith, your memory will forever remain etched in our hearts.
