In Memory

Ronald L. Cochran

Ronald L. Cochran

Ronald "Ron" Lynn Cochran was born August 9, 1942 and died November 5, 1993 in Fannin County, Georgia at the age of 51. 

He attended Baptist Bible Seminary after graduating from AHS in 1960. He graduated from BBS in 1965. 

He visited Alton in the summer of 1961 and led the evening devotions at Brown St. Baptist Church on July 12, 1961. His parents, Lynn and Edith Cochran, whom he was visiting for the summer, must have been super proud. 

He was survived by his parents, one sister Brenda J. Hudson of Lakeland, Florida,and many nieces and nephews. 

 

[NOTE -- This is all I have confirmed about Ron. I still haven't  found an obituary.  If anyone knows his sister, or has information about a marriage, children, the things he liked to do in high school. Please add to this record through the comments. Marilyn Waide Lake]

I believe Ronnie Cochran was in the band. It seemed he was always a part of whatever was going on in our class. An active, positive young guy.

Hi, Larry, I want to thank you again for your efforts in helping me find Ron Cochran's obituary information. I think I found a good lead today. 

I found his mother's obituary. She died in 1998, and it said her son Ron L. Cochran predeceased her. So that means before 1998. Also in this obituary it gives the name of a sister, Brenda Hudson. And she lived in Lakeland FLA. Found a phone number for B. Hudson, called. No answer yet. 

I also found info about a Rev. Ron L. Cochran, youth leader, at an Ames Iowa Baptist Church. This was in 1973-74. And he had an auto accident in the fall of 1974. It said he was 31.  

Nothing later about any injuries, etc. But since I know Ron went to a Baptist college and Upper Alton Baptist Church, it makes sense this could be him.  Though there is no mention of a wife or her name. 

Your friend, Marilyn
