“And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.” Romans 8:11b. Precious son and brother, Joshua Paul Coen, went to be with Jesus on January 10, 2024, at the age of 43, following a life of multiple disabilities and illnesses.

Joshua was born on January 31, 1980, in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. Spending most of his life in the loving care of McGuire Memorial home in New Brighton, PA, Joshua loved to spend time with his caregivers, family, and fellow friends. McGuire, along with his family, treasured Joshua’s life as a precious gift from the Lord. His smile and joy brought happiness to each person who knew him. Joshua especially enjoyed listening to music, being talked to, and had a sweet tooth for strawberry milk! Joshua is survived by his parents, Larry and Laura Coen of Jefferson City, MO, sister Rebekah Harnett (spouse Greg, and children Hailey and Jackson) of Plainfield, IL., sister Rachael Cox (spouse Christopher) of Holts Summit, MO., along with aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Friends will be received, Tuesday, January 16, 2024, from 9 a.m. until 10:45 at McGuire Memorial, 2119 Mercer Road, New Brighton, Pa 15066.  A Homegoing service will follow at 11 a.m., with Deacon Tom Turney, officiating.

A celebration of Joshua’s homegoing will be announced once arrangements are made for him in Missouri.
