With heavy hearts, we share that our beloved father, Dr. Thomas L. Coleman, passed away peacefully this morning.
“The memory of the righteous is a blessing.”
Proverbs 10:7
Our father lived a life defined by service, integrity, and love for his family and community. From his military service to his work with the Department of Juvenile Justice and his community leadership, he was deeply committed to helping others and leaving every place better than he found it. The values he instilled in us, faith, discipline, compassion, and justice, shaped who we are, both personally and professionally. Any good we have been able to do in this world is a reflection of his guidance, sacrifice, and example.
We are profoundly grateful for the prayers, calls, messages, and expressions of love shared with our family during his illness. The kindness, encouragement, and moments of connection, whether near or far, were special for our father and brought us strength during this time.
We ask that you continue to keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we honor his life and legacy.
With love from the Coleman family,
Donna and Jeff
