Mere words cannot suffice; my heart goes out to Pastor Coffees family and friends who bear the heavy lifting of grief while missing their beloved husband, father, son, brother, etc. A friend to all who would meet anyone exactly where & how he was needed; truly one of the finest men Ive ever known.

I played football with Ricky as he was known then. Great athlete and never will forget trying to block him. It was like trying to move a brick wall. Rest easy old friend.

Bishop Coffee thank you for touching the life of the Robinson family. You and your wife gave my mother a lot of support with us.Your kind heart will never be forgotten.. Thanks for that meal you gave us in 1992 I remember it like it was yesterday. We were not hungry that night thanks to you and your wife. The Lord I'm sure said to you job well done...

I remember being met down at Rainbows Babies and Childrens by Bishop Coffee before each of Janessas Eye procedures. It didnt matter 530 or 6 A.M. he was there with us to give us comfort and a prayer over our child and a meal for us as we anxiously awaited. Its not goodbye but I will see you when I get there. Thank you for everything you provided in my life from counseling to prayer.
