He was an accomplished All-State athlete in Basketball, Cross Country, Track and Field. His Long Jump, Broad Jump, and Javelin records were held for over 50 years before being broken.
Conrad joined the U.S. Navy after High School. While in Germany, Conrad played basketball for several years ranking as a top 10 power forward with a traveling Navy Basketball team playing throughout Europe. After transferring to the Pacific Fleet during the post-reconstruction era in Japan he was recruited to play basketball for the Navy in Asia.
It was during this time he caught the eye of his wife Toshiko. Chief Conrad James Cote survived 2 tours in Vietnam and exposure to Agent Orange, ultimately serving 25 years in the U.S. Navy, retiring honorably. He has since been a lifetime member of VFW Post 1503 in Dale City, Virginia.

Conrad was an active volunteer at the Dumfries Triangle Fire Department stretching multiple decades. He was very active in his grandchildren’s life.
He was constantly traveling to Illinois to attend their sporting events. Even when he couldn’t attend he was diligent in finding a way to view online. He was a loving and generous Friend, Father and Grandfather and will be missed.
