Eileen Marie Coughlin

March 23, 1930 — September 15, 2024

Eileen Marie Coughlin, a beloved matriarch and spirited soul, peacefully departed this life on September 15, 2024, at her home in Casper, Wyoming, surrounded by her cherished family. Born on March 23, 1930 in Casper, Wyoming to Hank and Minnie Schauss, Eileen graced the world with her vibrant personality and boundless love from the very start.

Graduating from Natrona County High School in 1948 Eileen soon embarked on a beautiful journey of love and partnership. She married John Coughlin on July 30, 1949, and together they built a life filled with endless love. As a dedicated homemaker, Eileen poured her heart into creating a nurturing environment for her family, always ensuring that love and kindness filled every room.

Eileen had a zest for life that was truly remarkable. Known for her spicy humor, generous spirit, and an ever-present helping hand, she touched the lives of many. Most of all, she was very classy lady. Her interests included swimming, sewing, and golfing—all activities through which she spread joy to those around her. She delighted in the simple pleasures of life, whether it was watching her grandchildren participate in sports events or enjoying a cup of coffee with good friends.

Eileen's commitment to serving others went beyond her family as she devoted countless hours to her community. She volunteered for 35 years as a Pink Lady at Wyoming Medical Center and contributed another 25 years to Meals on Wheels. Her heart was undeniably big, and her efforts left a lasting impact on those she encountered.

She is survived by her loving husband, John; loving son, Tim (Belinda) Coughlin, and a proud family that includes her cherished grandchildren, Heather (Jason) Casebolt, Justin Coughlin, Brett (Jesse Miller) Ingram, Megan (Shane) Belcher, and Austin (Katie) Ingram. Eileen also took immense joy in her great-grandchildren—Brooklyn, Hudson, Preslyn, Jameson, Brynlie, Jordyn, Hailey, Henley, Camden, and Preston. Together with numerous nieces and nephews, they will forever treasure the memories of her radiant spirit.

Eileen's legacy is marked by the love of her family and friends, yet she leaves behind a touching void felt deeply by all who knew her. She was preceded in death by her parents, Hank and Minnie; her siblings, Ralph (Fran) Schauss, Margaret (Clint) Wyatt, and Robert (Liz) Schauss; and her daughter, Jolene Ingram.

Family and friends are invited to pay their respects during the visitation on September 19, 2024, from 3 PM to 6:30 PM at Newcomer Funeral Home in Casper with a vigil to begin at 6:30PM. A funeral service will be held the following day, September 20, 2024, at 10:30 AM at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, where Eileen’s faith shone brightly during her years of Adoration.

Eileen Marie Coughlin will be deeply missed, but her legacy of love, laughter, and selflessness will endure in the hearts of all those who were fortunate enough to have known her. May she rest in eternal peace.
