Henry Cote'

Henry "Harry" Cote', 87, of Gladwin, passed away on Thursday, February 10, 2022, in Ocala, Florida. He was born on June 27, 1934, the son of Harry and Marie (Doyle) Cote' in Detroit. On February 7, 1959, he was united in marriage to Carol Daudlin in Detroit. He was a distributor for Wolverine Oil until his retirement. Harry was a devoted member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Knights of Columbus, and was a former member of the Gladwin Lions Club. Harry enjoyed socializing with friends and family and always offered a helping hand.

Harry could fix anything and loved nothing more than helping his children and their families work on projects. He was a "doer" and a "fixer" and would work long and hard to get any job done. Harry instilled his work ethic into all of his children and was willing to brag about all of their accomplishments. If there was something nice to be said, Harry said it. He expressed his appreciation without hesitation, and each compliment he gave was genuine and truly from the heart. He enjoyed golfing, dancing, and watching his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren participate in many activities.

Left to cherish his memory is his wife of 63 years: Carol Cote'; children: Maureen (Guy) Thurlow, Tom (Beverley) Cote', Dave (Amy) Cote', and Joe Cote'; grandchildren: Sharon Koscielski, Jim (Kelley) Thurlow, Tommy (Amy) Cote', Tim Cote', Mitch (Katie Jourdain) Cote', Mallory (Guy) Soulliere, Carley Cote', and Delaney Cote'; great-grandchildren: Gracie Thurlow, Averie Thurlow, Bryson Thurlow, Kaden Koscielski, Rylan Cote', Madeline Cote', Hudson Cote', Logan Cote', Lauren Cote', and Ty Soulliere.

He is preceded in death by his parents; Harry and Marie; daughter: Sharon Cote'; grandson; Tanner Cote'; and siblings: Frank Cote' and Mary Ellen Cote'.
