  5. I am very sorry to hear of the loss of Mr. Coleman. I see that he has attained many accomplishments. He was an amazing man. I won't pretend to know what you're going through, but what has helped me deal with the loss of those I love is turning to the Scriptures, something that has been a real source of comfort. One Scripture that gives me hope is Isaiah 26:19, which says, "Your dead will live… Awake and shout joyfully, you residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of the morning, and the earth will let those powerless in death come to life." I hope that this verse will also comfort you; and I hope you and your family can get through this difficult time. Please accept my condolences for the loss of your beloved father. Sincerely, Meryl.

  6. My heart is so saddened by the loss of Papa Charlie but I know he is rejoicing as he was reunited with Mama Mary! I have so many childhood memories of this wonderful couple! Somethimes I think I spent more time at their house as I did my own! My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Coleman family!
