John Wesley Coleman, Sr.

John, you will truly be missed. My heart hurts but I know Gods unchanging hand. You will always hold a special place in my heart. You are the most kindest person I know. A great friend, co-worker, counselor and most of all my special sounding board. Love you John and will always remember our fun times, laughter and working the buses at FCI Tallahassee. Rest up my dear friend. Job well done.

I lost a great friend, Brother John Coleman. We first met in 1982 while in the Training Academy with the State of TN, Tullahoma Tn..and later on reuniting at FCI Memphis/BOP. John will be missed and will never be forgotten. Many memories shared over the years, John touched many lives and gain true friendships while here. A true friend to the end. Rest is peace my friend.

Lt Coleman, you had a heart of gold and always had something nice to say when you visited my office. Now you can rest.

Lt Coleman was one of the fairest and kindest I've ever worked for. Rest easy Lou. Tony Curtis FCI Memphis
