Barbara Coffey Obituary
Barbara attended The Church of Christ. She loved gardening and was a devoted wife and mother. She loved taking long walks while enjoying the fresh air. Barbara had a heart for other people. Every day, she made a point to touch another person's life. Family and friends were Barbara's love and joy. She will be remembered as a woman of great faith.
Barbara is survived by her husband, two children, Greg Coffey of Pagosa Spring, CO and Travis and wife Amy Coffey of Mimbres, NM, seven grandchildren and two great grandchildren. She also leaves behind two sisters, Nelda and Bruce Jenkins of Cortez, CO and Rita Lamont of Kerrville, TX.
A celebration of life for Barbara will be announced at a later date. The family wishes to thank all of those who cared and prayed for her over the past months as she struggled with cancer.
Barbara was anxious to be in the arms of Jesus.

I never met Barbara in person, however, I spoke with her on the phone at length, and she was a dear woman. I considered her to be a friend. Deepest condolences to her family. She will be greatly missed.
