Today, April 11, 2006, my loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother, Jane Annah Moxley Coleman, 77, of Buena Vista, left her earthly home to join her family in paradise.

She was a graduate of Natural Bridge High School in 1946. She became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in 1947 and served the Lord faithfully until her illness in 1992, but she never lost her faith in the Gospel.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Hilda Burks Moxley and Grace Bell Wagner Moxley; a grandson, Gordon Christopher Wheeler; brothers: Melvin Francis Moxley and Lawrence Moxley.

She is survived by her husband of 59 years, Alvin W. Coleman; a daughter, Nancy C. Sensabaugh of Buena Vista; a son, Gary B. Coleman and his wife Robin of Maneto, North Carolina; a brother, William N. Moxley and his wife, Emily and family; six grandchildren: Annah Twitty, Rebecca and Ivan King, Shaan and Kimberly Wheeler, Christy and Richard Fitzgerald, Jogan and Shannon Clark, Emily Coleman and mother, Patricia Coleman; fourteen great grandchildren: Chavon, Aaron and Madame President Skye Twitty, Mackenzie, Christopher Tye and Bradick Wheeler, Logan and Ryan Fitzgerald, Robert Harris, Jacie Carter, Jaylen, Chandler, Bryant, Cameryn Clark. Also surviving are a multitude of friends and family.

A funeral service for Mrs. Coleman will be conducted at 2 p.m. Friday, April 14, 2006 in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Buena Vista by Bishop Michael Gibbons. The family will receive friends Thursday evening from 6-8 p.m. at the church.

(I know this sounds like a stuck record because you've heard it so often: I love you and I want you to know the 59 years we've spent together were the best years of my life. I love you, babe, and will be with you again soon. Your loving husband).

The Bolling, Grose & Lotts Funeral Service is handling the arrangements.
