Gabreon Tairice Coleman, 29, of Gadsden, AL, passed away on Wednesday, April 23, 2025.
Gabreon Tairice Coleman was born in Gadsden, Al to Mia Sabrina Hoyett on March 29, 1996.
He was educated in the Gadsden City School System and received his GED from Gadsden State Community College. He then went on to study at CDI and earned his CDL in 2019. He was currently attending DeVry University to obtain a degree in Software Development and Engineering.
“Fattboi” was the life of the party. He was either going to turn it up or turn it out. He loved his family with a passion, and he was definitely a Mama’s boy.
If he needed anything, he was going to call his mama. He would make sure to call his aunts to see what they cooked to get his plate delivered.
He was a proud uncle to Kaison Baker and Tyson Jones. They were his world. He made sure they didn’t want for anything and ensured that their needs were met. He made sure to let them know their uncle loved them- “uncle fat man.”
He was an EXTREME Dallas Cowboy fan. He enjoyed watching the game, chilling with his friends, playing the game and listening to music. He would argue you down about them Cowboys.
Right or Wrong! Win or Lose! Dallas Cowboys for Life!
