Jon Lee Cochran II's Obituary
COCHRAN, Jon Lee, II
Passed away peacefully at home with family by his side on May 7, 2021 at the age of 67. He was born July 18, 1953 to Frances Williamson Cochran and Jon Lee Cochran I (both predeceased) in Duncan, Ok. Beloved husband of Carolyn Murphy married 25 years. Doting father of Nicole soon to be married to Brady Mulkey of Royce City, TX. Much loved sister, Christine Redding (Garry) of Prosper and niece Milan Titus (Milton), nephews Ryan Redding (Chrissi) and Trevor Redding.
We will lovingly remember Jon as a lover of life and all things fun. He was a consummate networker. If you had a need, he had a name and number to offer. His pride and joy was his wife and daughter who is be married June 12, 2021. His goal was to walk Nicole down the aisle, but he’ll now have a front row seat in heaven. His other love was serving his customers spread across many states. Jon worked in the furniture and textile business all his career starting with his father’s business in Oklahoma City. Even though covid sidelined his travel plans, he stayed in touch helping anytime and anyway he could. Many friends and reps in the business pitched in to help keep his orders coming. It has been utterly amazing the lengths many friends went to help him. Thank you does not seem sufficient to express our gratitude. But thank you all!
A celebration of life will be held at Grace Church, Plano, TX in the Chapel of the administration building (southwest corner of Parker & Preston) on Thursday, May 20, 2021 at 2:00pm.
