The funeral service in her honor will begin at 1:00 p.m., Wednesday, May 24, 2017, at Mitchell-Jerdan Funeral Home, 1200 Wabash Avenue, Mattoon, IL 61938, with Pastor David Dolan officiating. Interment will follow at Humboldt Cemetery, rural Humboldt, IL. Visitation will be held at the funeral home from 11:00 a.m., until the service begins. Treva was born August 25, 1930, in Coles County, IL, a daughter of the late Myno and Vi (Kuhns) Jones. She was raised in Mattoon by Aunt Sylvie and Uncle Charlie Graham. She married the love of her life, William H. Cobb, Sr., on September 18, 1947, in Sullivan, IL. They were blessed with 60 years of marriage and six children prior to his death in 2010. In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by one son, Roger Dale Cobb. Left to cherish her memory are their children: Samuel Joseph (Mary Lynn) Cobb of Charleston; Linda Standerfer of Mattoon; Bill (Sheila) Cobb, Jr. of Humboldt; Karen (David) Pugh of Arcola; Shirley (Ralph) Beck of Mattoon; a daughter-in-law, Joan Cobb of Matoon and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Treva was a homemaker and providing for her family was her priority. She was a devoted member of New Life Church in Sullivan, IL, where others knew her as a prayer warrior. Most of all, she loved spending time with her husband and pets, most especially their Candy. She will be sadly missed. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made to the New Life Church in Sullivan, IL, or the organization of the donor’s choice.
