Mrs. Coffield was very dear to me. Every Sunday when I delivered her breakfast, we would share some of the political issues of the day. Her passion for social justice and reform was commendable.I will miss those moments, which always ended with a hug and reassurance to each other that things will and can get better. May she rest in peace. We all can truly say, "Her living was not in vain."
