"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 152, No 14, p 168, Apr. 7, 1952.
Clifford S. Coon, only child of Asa Stillman and Elizabeth Zinn Coon, was born at Vandalia, Ill., March 15, 1876, and passed to his reward at his home in Vandalia February 12, 1952.
On August 5, 1908, Mr. Coon was united in marriage with Miss Eva Satterlee. They spent most of their married life in Farina where they were associated with the work and the interests of the Seventh Day Baptist Church and where they were most faithful workers. Although Clifford was always a Christian, it was not until late in life that he made a public profession and was baptized in the waters of Lake Farina.
He was a photographer of no mean ability and maintained a studio at Farina for 12 years. He was also a carpenter and builder. Perhaps one of his best jobs was that of overseeing the remodeling of the inside of the Church.
For the major part of the last twelve years he was confined to his home because of a heart ailment. He was the type of man that made the world better because he had lived in it and left it poorer by his passing.
He is survived by his faithful companion and by a number of close relatives and numerous friends.
Funeral services were held at the Seventh Day Baptist Church, February 14, conducted by his pastor, and burial was made in the Farina Cemetery.
