Dad,
We knew the day would come but it does not make it any easier. I am so proud to be your daughter and throughly enjoyed talking and laughing with all your friends, past students and players from LWHS last night at the Tiki. I am sure we will hear more and have more laughs tonight at the Inlet.
The thing that was repeated more and more last night was that you truly enjoyed life and that is what we all strive for in our own lives, but not many are able to accomplish...

Dear Family,
I did not Richard personally,but I knew his Coffman grandparents. I wish to express my condolences for your loss. My grandfather was a brother to your grandfather Coffman. Uncle Granville and Aunt Edith were amazing and awesome people. I was very blessed to know them. They were always very proud of their extended family. I am very sorry for your loss.

Coach Coffman was one of the most important influences in my life at LWHS (1963-65). He was "a man's man" and a great coach that you gave 110% for. My sympathy to his family.

Coach, (Dad), I may not have had the honor to have you as a coach, but I knew you as "Dad" or Father-in-Law. It was not only an honor, but a pleasure to have known you and be welcomed as part of the family. We shall meet again one day. You will be missed.
Love,
