Sir,

You will never be forgotten. Your family will be in my prayers forever.

Rest in Peace.

To Deputy Coleman's Family:

When you love long and deeply, you will grieve long and deeply. Take your time, grieve your way, let others help you and know that you are never alone. When times are rough for me, I simply repeat "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus" and let God take all the pain for me. Rest, eat well, exercise, surround yourself with the ones who you know understand you the best, and get off and be alone as you find the need.

I have been there, I have done that.
With Much Faith,
Pam

I just got to know Bill in the last year at Pioneer Lodge #82. Great guy. A man's man with a real sharp sense of duty and humor. Always like talking with him. He brought great quality and hard work to our lodge. There will be a terrible void without him. Very sad and tragic day. He had a very honorable life and is now hearing the words "well done good and faithful servant". His family is in my prayers.
