Eloyce Loree (Finch) Cossins, (81), passed away on September 29, 2024 in Kansas City, Missouri. She married Lewis Arvin Cossins on May 8, 1960, and they enjoyed 56 years of marriage until his passing. She was born on February 26, 1943 at her grandparents’ home in rural Worth County, Missouri, on her grandmother’s birthday. Her childhood was spent on the family farm, while her adult years were enjoyed in a variety of Missouri towns as her husband’s service with the Missouri State Highway Patrol moved them about the state. She worked a variety of jobs throughout her working years including grocery checker, bookkeeper, and city treasurer for Platte City, Missouri, but her real love was taking care of her family, making sure everyone was cozy and well-fed. She kept a list of each person’s favorite foods, and when you visited, you can bet your favorites were there and in quantity.
Eloyce is survived by her three children: Robert (Denise) of Spring Hill, Kansas, their five children, and seven grandchildren, with two more on the way; Teresa (Glenn) Fulk of Platte City, Missouri, their seven children, six grandchildren, and two great grandchildren; and Michael (Cindye) of Wildwood, Missouri, and their four children. She is also survived by her brother and sister-in-law, Drs. Reggie and Chris Finch of Pearland, Texas; sister-in-law Etta Masoud of Pickering, Missouri; and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Arvin; her parents, Charles Earl Finch and O. Marseilene Finch; and her older brother and sister-in-law Robert & Vianna Finch.
Services were held at Dickey Funeral Home in Harrisonville, Missouri, on October 5, 2024, at 2:00. Visitation was held immediately prior to the service starting at 1:00 pm.
