If anyone in the Memphis area could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. My friend and I are trying to find a relative of a Robert L Coker that lived in Memphis and was in WWII. We believe he was born in 1903 and died 1981. his mother's name was Fannie and he has at least 6 brothers. If anyone could find his obituary (died Nov 1981) or any information at all, it would be very helpful and greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I found a listing for the following on the Tennessee Death Index:

Robert L. Coker
Died: 14 November 1981
County of Death: Shelby

I can access the Shelby County newspapers, please contact me at my private email if I can be of help.
