A memorial service will be held at the Lone Star Cowboy Church of Ellis County on August 10, 2024 at 2:00 PM. Jon was born in Dallas, TX on February 9, 1953 to Jack and Juanita Coe. He was preceded in death by both of his parents, sister, Becky and brother, Jack Coe, Jr. In lieu of flowers the family request donations be made to the Lone Star Cowboy Church of Ellis County benevolent fund for those in need. Jon is survived by his wife of 28 years, Mary Morse; daughters, Ashley Wine, Lisa Morse and adopted daughter Trish (Tinker) Files; grandsons, Devon Hammond, Whitman Wine, and Ward Wine. Jon is also survived by his sisters, Nita Wilson and Joanna Herndon; and brother, Steve Coe as well as extended family members of aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces and cousins. Jon was one of six Coe children born to Jack and Juanita. The Coe’s resided in Lancaster, Texas where Jon attended and graduated, from Lancaster High School. During high school, he developed a passion for football and basketball and but chose to pursue basketball after high school. Jon received a Bachelor degree in Bible at Southwest Assemblies of God in Waxahachie and also attended Lee College in Tennessee. During his college years, he was a talented and competitive basketball player who was scouted and signed to the Arizona Wizards where he played semi-professional ball for four seasons in Phoenix. During his lifetime, he was a Senior Pastor, successful executive, small business owner, teacher, coach, rancher, avid team roper and beloved husband. The only thing Jon was more passionate about than roping and basketball, was Jesus. Jon gave his life to the Lord early as a child and spent virtually all of his life in some type of ministry. He spent many years as a youth pastor before becoming a Church Pastor. Jon pastored in Phoenix, AZ, Kansas City, MO, DeSoto, TX, Sterling, IL, Cedar Hill, TX and Red Oak, TX. Jon spent many days and went lots of miles to mentor and teach other pastors about starting Cowboy Churches. Working with many church denominations, the Baptist, Nazarenes and the Wesleyan he either started or assisted in the starting of over a hundred churches in the US. Denominational believes were not as important to Jon as the lost coming to knowing Jesus. Jon wanted everyone to hear the good news and find the peace and love that knowing Jesus brings.
