Even though I haven't seen Tom in many, many years I will remember him as a friendly, fun-loving guy that always had a smile on his face and was willing to help do anything.
My prayers and thoughts are with his family & his friends that are grieving at this time.

So much time has gone by, we all chose our different paths, but we will all meet up again, as God chooses us, one by one - to come home to Him, once again. You are missed Tom.

I feel so lucky Tom Coleman was a part of our lives since Jr. High. Many wonderful memories and laughs. Tom was always a "true" loyal and caring friend. Tom's way of viewing life and words of wisdom was unique. He made you think and see the other side.
I especially feel blessed we had a cook out in Tom's honor in August 2006 at our house in Bedford. What a special night as 20 people gathered and reminiced around the fire until after mid night. Wonderful Jr. High & high school memroies and conversations flowed around the fire that night.
Tom lived his life the way he wanted too. Tom loved life, loved his family, and loved his friends.
I am glad Tom Coleman touched my life.
My thoughts & prayers are with his family as they go through this difficult time. Love, Debbie (Bowlby) Larsen
