PAT COOGAN - October 26, 2021 - Tacoma, Washington - Patrick Donlan 
Coogan died Tuesday. Born in Yakima, the son of Michael and Amy 
Donlan Coogan, Pat grew up in Seattle.  Pat lived by a deep and 
abiding faith and his faith found his soul mate in Patty (Patricia 
Ann Gibbons) Coogan, his wife of 64 years.  A lifelong Catholic, 
schooled by Jesuits at Seattle Prep and refreshed by Benedictine 
silent retreats, Pat became known for his nightly blessing for each 
of his children. He continued blessing his grands and even great 
grands. Pat's calm and resonant voice could capture the imagination 
(with The Hobbit) or invite contemplation as a lector at St. Leo.
A 1957 U.W. grad in Mechanical Engineering, Pat attended Georgetown 
Law at night, graduating in 1963, and practiced law for Weyerhaeuser. 
At 62, Pat picked up a hammer for Habitat for Humanity and 
volunteered in building 100+ homes in Tacoma, Pierce County, 
Guatemala, and Hungary. He loved organizing its interfaith build, 
too, with leaders of the Puyallup Tribe, Temple Beth El, and 
Tacoma's Christian churches. His parents and brothers, Mike and Joe 
Coogan, preceded him in death, as did his cousin Tom Bleakney. His 
wife Patty Coogan survives him along with three cousins: Nancy 
Cleland, Jim Callaghan, and Joanne Valencsin Brinker; six children: 
Teresa (Dave) Hillis, Steve (Nancy) Coogan, Tim (Franca), Thomas, 
Peter, and Katy (John) Hunter; six grandchildren: Patrick (Teresa) 
Hillis, Ryan (Kasi) Hillis, Jordan (Tiffany) Hillis, Shawn (Nick) 
Flory, and Sam and Maddy Hunter; and six great-grandchildren: 
Kenedee, Myles, Jae, Jimmy, Fiona, and Londyn.  Please consider
