I was saddened to hear of your passing. I was blessed to get to know your daughter Donna Coleman which brought you into my life. You were an awesome father and your daughter loved you very much. I have a very fond memory of you chewing us out for going down to DC very late at night to check out the street where all the hookers walked. I know you will be keeping watch over your family from above. Sending love to the rest of the family.
