To family --- l am sending my condolences to you all. Khaki as l knew him through my sons Demetrius "Keemo" and the late Sandy"Chuckie" Coleman was a quiet guy around me. So sorry to hear of his passing. He's with Chuck now-- so he's fine. May God give his mother the strength to endure this pain and void. Praying for the family.
