Iris Coleman Obituary

Born September 27, 1927 in Winnsboro, Texas to James Canel and Vera Ellen Banks (Doyle). Iris passed away quietly at home August 7, 2010 surrounded by her loving family. Iris is preceded in death by her loving husband of 63 years, Travis Coleman; and sons, George Wesley and Travis Ray Coleman. She will be missed dearly by her surviving children, Jeannie Marie, Linda Jo, James Delton, Vera Ellen, Helen Lynn, Roger Neil and Kellie Michelle; and all of her grand and great grandchildren. Iris was always there through thick and thin as a cheerleader, room mother, good listener, and advisor of life. Iris enjoyed arts, crafts, quilting, and spending time with her family. She had a zest for life and enjoyed laughter; she could tell some stories. Per her wishes, there will be no public services. The Coleman Family would like to give special thanks to the Odyssey Hospice Team for their loving care, Jasmine Whittenberg, Terersa Aguilar, Patty Smith, Roisin Allen and Craig Amos. Thank you for taking such good care of our Mother during her time of need. Thanks also to Steven Marmaolejo, Lupe Mendoza, and Andrew Mendoza with Parkview Mortuary for taking such care with our parents. www.bakersfield.com/obits Iris Fay Coleman 1927 - 2010

So sorry to hear of the death of your Mother, she was a good friend and a real nice caring person. Although I only saw her once in the last year I still miss her. We had such good times when we were younger. To Jeanie, Linda, Helen, Kelly, Roger, and Jimmy My thoughts are with you.
Sincerely, Wynona Haworth.
