Kevin J. Coughlin

Owner/Funeral Director

Meet Kevin Coughlin
Owner & Funeral Director
Kevin Coughlin’s journey in funeral service began more than three decades ago as a child in his hometown of Philadelphia, starting from the ground up—literally scrubbing whitewall tires on funeral hearses. Over a career spanning more than 30 years,[working alongside some of the best-known names in funeral care in Philadelphia] Kevin has built a lifelong vocation on a foundation of deep compassion, dignity, and unwavering professionalism.
Before dedicating his life fully to death care, Kevin built a strong legacy of public service. He proudly served as a Philadelphia police officer and demonstrated a lifelong commitment to community safety as a life member of the Union Fire Company in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, where he served as a volunteer for nearly three decades.
For the past six years, Kevin has brought that same servant's heart to families across Texas. As the owner and operator of Canon Coughlin Funeral Home and the Canon Mathis Cemetery alongside his wife, Lee, Kevin is deeply committed to walking alongside families through life's most difficult moments. Whether guiding loved ones through immediate needs, pre-planning, or personalized arrangements, Kevin and his family are proud to provide a comforting place to lean on for the Waller community.

Lee M. Meier-Coughlin

Owner

Meet Lee Meier-Coughlin
Co-Owner & Chief Financial Officer
An El Paso, Texas native, Lee’s path eventually led her to Philadelphia, where she met her husband and business partner, Kevin. For the past several years, Lee has stood side-by-side with Kevin, supporting him in his lifelong calling as a funeral director and bringing a deep, steady compassion to families navigating times of loss.
While Lee plays an integral role in the daily operations, administration, and co-ownership of Canon Coughlin Funeral Home and the Canon Mathis Cemetery, her professional roots also extend deeply into the community as a local journalist. That background gives her a unique gift for storytelling, active listening, and connecting genuinely with people.
Lee is honored to become a member of the Waller community and is dedicated to ensuring that every family who walks through their doors is treated with the utmost warmth, respect, and care.
