JOHN F. "JACK" COLEMAN

I´m calling donors on behalf of the Belmont Library Foundation and when I couldn´t get a hold of John I did a web search and found out he died.

Rest in peace, John, and thank you for your generosity. Your name will be on our wall of...

We knew him from St. Camillus where he was a regular parishioner. He donated quite a bit of $ for Father O'Leary's farewell party. He was kind, respectful, gentle and dedicated.

Such fond memories of Marge and Jack hosting the larger Sullivan clan each Christmas. Wonderful times listening in as Jack and Paul chatted about their old Dorchester neighborhood and Marge and Thomasina reminiscing about the Bronx. Jack always had his slot cars, pinball machine, and pool table ready to go... and marveling at all of Jack's cartoons - followed by an extraordinary Christmas dinner. Saddened by Jack's departure but joyful for his reunion with his beloved Marge. Rest in...
