Lee Coleman
1945 - 2017

Off to the RACES! Our beloved Lee Coleman has left the race of life and on to the great afterlife. Never one to be shy; Lee was always pleasant and talkative with friends and strangers yet to be friends. You could always count on Lee for a witty comment to lighten any mood. He kept that spark right up to the finish line.

Lee embraced experiences and always tried to make the best of them. Below are some of the things Lee loved to experience: Cooper and Morgan, KFC, cars, clean and matching tires, "pull my finger" jokes, tools, Sprint cars, NASCAR, Tony Stewart, coffee, Mohammed Ali, TV remotes, recliners, Bandit and Bubba, 6oz Coronas, Lake Powell, VERY green grass, beef, potato chips, black licorice, popsicles, pawn shops, TSP, car wax, WD-40, neighborhood Christmas parties, cell phones, cash in his wallet and Linda's banana pudding.

On the flip side of the coin there were things he sure didn't care for: exercising, liver and onions, "health" food, test, religious zealots, politics and doctors who asked too many questions.

As you can see, the love list is much bigger and much more fun, like Lee himself!

Lee is survived by his wife of 52 years, Linda, his siblings Joan Smith, Kay Robinson, Jeanie Neve and Ray Coleman, his grandchildren Cooper and Morgan Nichol, his son Troy and spouse Jaryn who stepped up and took care of us for over 3 years now, memory of son Todd (deceased) and daughter Kristin Coleman-Nichol and her spouse Jason Nichol.

Lee requested no services since he wouldn't be there to talk to people and enjoy the conversation. In honor of his warmth and friendliness, the family ask that you pay tribute Lee's memory by striking up a conversation with a random stranger and talk about the things that make you smile and laugh. Every stranger is only a friend you have yet to meet. To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
