Daniel "Boomer" Cothren

Daniel Jay Cothren (BOOMER) 58 years old. Ocean Park, Washington.

Daniel was born 11/20/1966 to J.C. Cothren and Mary Linda Cothren (Jenkins) in Chehalis, WA. He was raised in Chehalis, WA. Where he attended W.F. West High School. He moved to Ocean Park, WA. In 1986 and met his lifelong best friend of more than 40 years, Tony Kangas. He later married his soulmate Julene Cothren (Swenson) on 04/04/2018.

Daniel was a jack of all trades. He had worked in many fields, everything from oyster shucking to logging, from small gas repair to cooking. Daniel was a former Moose member and the lunchtime cook. Everyone that he met grew rather fond of him. He made friends everywhere he went and could have the best time doing anything. He loved a good time, especially with great people. He loved and adored his family and his closest of friends. Daniel loved to fish any chance he could and was a master of the pole. Daniel was a diehard Seattle Seahawks fan, he loved to get together with friends and family to take in every game. He had an undying love for music, his wife and their pup McLovin. Mic was the light of his life from when they first brought him home. They had a bond like no other. When Daniel was mobile you could find him out rock hounding in the Naselle River. Daniel had a love and zest for life and family like no other. 

Daniel leaves behind his loving wife Julene Cothren (Swenson), children: Kayla Tucker, Shawn Taylor, and Christian Taylor, his stepdaughter Kris Carrico, stepson Jack Atkins, and his brothers James Cothren and William Cothren.

He is preceded in death by his relatives J.C. Cothren, Mary Linda Cothren (Jenkins), Kimberly Cothren and Aaron Cothren. 

We would like to send a very special thank you to Penttila's Chapel by the Sea. Charlotte was absolutely amazing. We appreciate you. 

There will be a celebration of life for Daniel in early February, date to be determined. 

As Daniel would always say, "Just kick back and check it out."
