Coconut Pie With Oatmeal Crust image

If you love oatmeal- coconut cookies, this is the pie for you. It's got a delicious coconut filling with an oatmeal crust.My Mom cut the recipe out of our local paper in the 1960's, and I've loved it ever since. I always considered it one of my recipes that I didn't share, so now I'm going to do it in a big way.
