Allen Coleman Obituary

Allen (Brad) Coleman

Shreveport, LA-Allen Bradley (Brad) Coleman, age 58, passed away December 16, 2012 at the Willis Knighton Medical Center. Brad was born June 4, 1954 in Shreveport, LA.

He is survived by his loving wife Cheryl Coleman, his three children, Tiffany Mascagni, Allen Bradley (Brad) Coleman Jr, and Ashley Arens; eight grandchildren, Morgan, Hannah, Zoe, Samantha, Lilly, Brad, Chloe, and Noah, as well as his ten canine children. He was preceded in death by his parents, James and Marion Coleman; brother, Ronald Coleman and sister, Lessie Seagraves.

He was a Master Electrician by trade, and the owner of ABC Electric.

Brad touched everyone he ever came in contact with in a very special way. He was a brilliant man, with a heart the size of Texas. His obsessive phone calls, tall tales, master BBQing skills, and larger than life personality will truly be missed.
