Quincey Coates

Quincey Coates was a young man rooted in Pueblo at the time of his passing at age 23. Public records and contemporary news coverage identify him as a local resident whose life included close personal ties and relationships within his community. Those who knew him remember the ordinary, meaningful details that make a life — friendships, daily routines, and the small gatherings at neighborhood places where people come together.

In mid-July 2014, friends and family in Pueblo mourned his loss. Reports from local news outlets indicate Quincey was with a partner, and that the couple’s presence in the community and among friends was a part of his everyday life. Though public sources focus on the events surrounding his death, the lasting fact is that Quincey was a person with relationships that mattered to others. He was 23 — an age when people are building futures, connecting with family, and making plans that never came to be.

Publicly available accounts provide limited personal detail beyond his age, city, and the circumstances that followed his death. Where specific memories of his personality, work, or hobbies are not present in the record, it is important to acknowledge the limits of what is known while affirming his dignity as a person. The loss of Quincey affected family members, friends, and others who valued him — and those feelings of grief and remembrance are themselves part of his story.
