Aaron Joseph Coon's Obituary
Aaron Joseph Coon, age 15, went home to his Lord Jesus Christ on Monday, May 15, 2023 after winning the battle he fought hard in this world. Aaron was born in Muskegon, MI on May 25, 2007 to Edwin and Rachel (James) Coon and was a lifelong resident. Aaron was student at Reeths-Puffer High School where he was a leader in the First Priority Bible Group and was very proud to have been on the Reeths-Puffer Fishing Team. He was also very active at Fellowship Church, where he was a leader in the i3 Youth Group. Aaron's first love has always been the Lord. His faith was immeasurable. Then came his love for family and friends. Any time people met him they noticed his smile, it lit up the room. He would talk to anyone. You talked to him he would talk to you. Aaron was also a member of the “Empty Pockets Car Club” with his dad. He loved driving his 1966 Dodge Dart. He's Mopar all the way. His artwork gave him peace. He loved to draw. He has always been a loving, generous person. He touched many lives. His family and friends, many best friends, are going to miss him dearly. Survivors include his loving parents, Edwin and Rachel Coon; grandparents, Bill and Joan Coon, Bev Sall; uncles and aunts, Duane and Kacie Coon, Joe and Judy James, Kevin and Martha Sall, Beth Gates, Dean and Sandy Simons, Jeff and Bobbi Sall; cousins, Jacob Coon, Andy James, Kaleb (Jessica) Sall, Grace Sall, Lydia (Josh) Sutton, James Sall, AJ Gates, Chelsea Gates, Kaden Simons, Ellie Sall; and too many good friends to mention by name.
