Steven Coffey 
April 6, 1961 - October 29, 2021
Steven Dale Coffey passed away on October 29, 2021 from severe Covid-19. Just 60 years old, Steve was born in Roseville, CA, attended Mesa Verde High School, earned his General Contractors license building houses, including two his own. In his mid-twenties he joined one
of the family endeavors: working for the Department of Defense at McClellan AFB until it closed. He and the love of his life Catherine married on November 8, 1997 and transferred to San Diego where he worked at Naval Air Station on Coronado Island in the affectionately called Dolly Pardon hangars. As Steve prepared to retire, he and Catherine moved to Dayton, Nevada, and he transferred to the Fallon, Naval Air Station. During his 32-year career, Steve went TDY several times to some interesting and beautiful places, including Hawaii. He also made numerous friends and mentored countless employees and colleagues.
While Steve had an extremely strong work ethic and understood the importance of the work he performed, he also had an equally strong commitment to family and an unrivaled adventurous spirit. His free time was spent helping friends and families with home improvements, wrenching on his beloved 34 Ford, fun runs on his Harley Davidson, traveling and hanging out with friends and family. Sometimes he called our family get togethers Forced Family Fun, but he always had a good time, in the end.
With his giant, thoughtful and quiet presence, sometimes stubborn, often teasing, he touched so many lives and will be missed by countless friends and family.
