"Well Done Faithful Servant.



You have fought the good fight, finished the race and kept the faith." This was the welcomed words that Pastor Stephen Cotten heard when he went home to be with the Lord on March 26, 2023.

Stephen was a truly great man whose impact will be forever felt by his family, that loves him dearly.

He was an incredibly selfless man whose passing left an unfillable gap in the hearts of his loved ones. His ability to sacrifice, provide, support, forgive, and love will be forever engrained in all who knew him.

Stephen, the most loving and devoted father and grandfather is survived by his daughter, Marla and husband Dexter; son, Timothy and his wife Jolie; grandchildren Brayden, Ryan, Jackson, Logan, Hudson, Evangeline and Noah; His brother David Michael and his wife, Paula and sister Mary Ruth, alongside his many nieces and nephews; and last but not least, his faithful feline companion, Shadrack.

A celebration of life service will take place at 10 a.m. on April 6 at First United

Methodist Church of Kaufman, 208 S. Houston St., Kaufman.
