Not sure what to say?

I met Coleman at a Young Life Camp in Minnesota. He was so kind and such a inspiring Christian even as a very young man. I remember he called his Mother and Father on the phone to say hello and say, "I love you." A wonderful young man.

My condolences to the family . May you find comfort in your treasured memories and Gods promise to return our loved ones . 1st Thessalonians 4 : 13&14.

Coleman was a man of courage, honor, and distinction. He was our law school classmate, mentor, role model, and friend -- a lawyer's lawyer and one of the finest trial lawyers in Dallas. We always looked up to him and admired him as a colleague and a man. And he never stopped fighting the good fight! May our Heavenly Father ease your grief and leave only the cherished memories of his loving ways. And may the Angels lead him into Paradise. Your friends, Larry & Mary Ackels.

Coleman was a classmate at SMU . Although I did not know Coleman well , he always impressed me not only as a good lawyer but a good person as well . My condolences and prayers go out to Coleman´s family .

Dearest Beth and family, My heart aches with the loss of one of the kindest and thoughtful human beings ever. There was never a time walking down the halls of HP High School and seeing Coleman, that he always offered a kind and sincere smile and managed to acknowledge me as well as everyone else. My deepest sympathies to you Beth and your beautiful family, Cathy Lief Pennycuff

One of my all time memories is a month together on YL Work Crew with Coleman and Bobby Smith at The Castaway Club in Minnesota. I picked up the two guys and three of us drove to Pelican Rapids, Minnesota at ages 17 and 16! We barely knew each other but we bonded immediately and never stopped until we returned home over a month later. Coleman was destined to become the man of God he became. He threw himself into everything he did with the greatest zeal sharing the love of Christ at every...
