Bob was an exceedingly good-humored and generous person which anybody who has had the pleasure of working with him can attest to. He was the glue that bound Coleman together on the work floor and off. He was the first to extend invitations to coworkers and friends for parties, meeting up at the bar after work or the restaurant for lunch and, of course, the famous LAN parties.
Bob, you're greatly missed.
Mary and the Coffey family, my deepest condolences and best wishes. You're in our thoughts and wishes.

My deepest heartfelt condolences to Robert's immediate family and relatives. I had the great pleasure of knowing Robert as a kid throughout grammar school and into junior high. He was always friendly and a gentle presence to be with. I'm shattered to find out he is gone, so young. Last I saw him he was happy in his line of work and we chatted about our youth. Its that image I'll keep in my mind and heart. Have a safe journey home, Robert. I'll miss you.

In my thoughts and prayers,
Darren

Having worked with Bob's mother several years earlier at Service Systems, it was a variation on deja vu when I had the opportunity to work with Bob at OfficeMax in the 90s. I will always remember his ever-cheerful demeanor, his willingness to help out whenever he was needed, and his enthusiasm for both life and life's work. Those of us who had the pleasure and privilege of having known Bob are much richer for the experience. My most sincere condolences to his family, with the hope that your fond memories of Bob will buoy your spirits.

My condolences to Bob’s family. I knew Bob throughout grade school and shared a home room with him at Kenmore East High School. Although Bob and I had lost touch over the years, I was very sorry to hear he had passed and was proud to count him among my friends at school. I would like to offer solace in these words quoted from the book of John: Jesus said “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, yet shall he live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die." May Bob rest in peace and may the Lord comfort all those who new and loved him.
