Mr. Stephen M Coester's Obituary
Steve was born in New Jersey to parents Donald and Crystal Coester. As a gifted student he was always trying to take things apart and see how they worked. He spent lots of time and money at Radio Shack finding projects to challenge him. He moved to Florida in middle school and spent much of his life here. He also lived in Matairie, Louisiana and Cummings, Georgia.
Steve worked for an airline before entering the construction field. Working in new construction he worked on many projects including restaurants and schools. In later years he entered the repair and remodeling field. He also repaired and rebuilt computers as a hobby.
He was a former Harley Davison owner and enthusiast as well as a big NASCAR fan.
For many years he was plagued with illnesses and only recently it was determined to be related to Agent Orange exposure.
He is predeceased by his father Donald and sister Donna. He is survived by his mother Crystal, his sister Cheryl and brother Wayne. He also leaves behind his faithful service dog, Rebel who was able to bring help to him in his final hours.
