Mere words are of little solace at a time such as this,...but, thank you for your service to us all. May your family's needs be met by those left to care for them. May you rest now and may your family recieve comfort and support from those who you served so faithfully.

There are no words that I can offer to the family that would alleviate the sense of loss they feel at this time. The Holy Bible tells us in Matthew 5, verse 4, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." In the same chapter, verse 9, it says, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."
May the blessing of our Lord be with the family and may they find strength in knowing that Officer Coleman is now with Jesus Christ in the house of God.

Lord Jesus Christ, who willest that no man should perish, and to whom petition is never made without the hope of mercy, for Thou saidst with Thine own holy and blessed lips: "All things whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, shall be done unto you"; I beg of Thee, O Lord, for Thy holy Name's sake, to grant me at the hour of my death full consciousness and the power of speech, sincere contrition for my sins, true faith, firm hope and perfect charity, that I may be able to say unto Thee with a clean heart: Thou has redeemed me, O God of truth, who art blessed for ever and ever. Amen.

Through many peoples and many seas have I traveled
to thee, brother, and these wretched rites of death
I bring a last gift but can speak only to ashes
Since Fortune has taken you from me
Poor brother! stolen you away from me
leaving me only ancient custom to honor you
as it has been from generation to generation
Take from my hands these sad gifts covered in tears
Now and forever, brother, Hail and farewell.
