Coon then won a full term as mayor in 1952 and was succeeded in 1956 by fellow Democrat W. L. \"Jack\" Howard, who served for five nonconsecutive terms in the office between 1956 and 1978. After his mayoral tenure, Coon was from 1956 to 1964 the Louisiana state fire marshal under Governors Earl Kemp Long and Jimmie Davis.Coon was the youngest child of the former Henrietta Henson (1865–1947) and Jacob Allen Coon (1858–1919) of the Okaloosa Community in Ouachita Parish.

Coon had a stepson, the late John Harden Barnett Downs,a five-term at-large member of the Alexandria City Council for whom the Johnny Downs Sports Complex in Alexandria is named.
