COGER LEWIS ROBERTSON Obituary

ROBERTSON, COGER LEWIS - of Karns, was suddenly called home to the Lord, whom he loved and served faithfully, to be made complete in Christ on Friday October 12, 2012, at the age of fifteen, surrounded by his loving family. Coger was the fifth and youngest son of Pam and Barry Robertson, born June 3, 1997, in Knoxville, TN. Coger was a sophomore at Karns High School, where he swam for the swim team and played the cello in the Karns Orchestra. He was a member at Central Baptist Church of Bearden and was an active participant in the youth group. Coger was a young man of many talents. He enjoyed playing the classical guitar and cello. He could often be found playing his instruments in the living room. He enjoyed being outside on the family farm, basking in God's creation. Coger was happy and confident in who he was. He was a blessing to so many, despite his short time here on earth. Although he was the youngest brother, he held the most influence on the family. Coger will be missed by his four older brothers, all of whom he greatly looked up to. Shawn, Eric, Reuben, and Kevin Robertson are all so proud of the young man Coger had become. He is also survived by his grandmother, Lena Robertson of Kingsport, TN; parents, Pam and Barry Robertson of Karns, TN; aunts, uncles, cousins, and countless friends. He is preceded in death by grandfather, Barry Robertson, Sr.; grandparents, Roy and Frances McKnight; and his uncle, Donald McKnight. Coger's family will be receiving friends at Central Baptist Church of Bearden on Sunday, October 14, 2012, from 4:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m, with a service immediately following at 7:00 p.m. Family and friends will gather at the family farm in Karns at the corner of Old Blacksferry Road and West Beaver Creek Drive, for a 1:00 p.m. graveside service on Monday, October 15. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Coger L. Robertson Memorial Orchestra Scholarship Fund, care of Home Federal Bank 7204, Oak Ridge Highway, Knoxville, TN 37931.
