    Dear Coleman Family, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom! I remember meeting her for the first time when I was in grade school and we all walked to school around the same time in our neighborhood! Many times we would ride bikes around there too! She would be out in your yard and would always wave or talk to us! She was soft spoken & just the kindest lady! She would be at the schools and followed Kevin & Raymond to any activities you were involved in! I admired her gentle ways! I am very sorry that I was Unable to attend her service! I heard it was beautiful! Sincerely, Shauna Martinez
