Larry Coleman, a humble and compassionate servant of the Lord, was born on October 2, 1941, in Kansas City, Kansas. Known affectionately by his loved ones as "Bumpa," Larry passed away peacefully on April 14, 2026, at the age of 84. Known for his unwavering faith, Larry lived his life as a reflection of the love and teachings of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Larry was the personification of a loving and devoted family man. A steady and grounding presence, Larry was the rock that supported his family in times of joy and sorrow. His life was a testament to the power of faith, and his spirit was a beacon of hope and love to all who knew him. Larry held a variety of jobs and possessed a wide range of skills, but was always willing to do what it took to support his family. He enjoyed painting, listening to classical music, and spending time with friends and loved ones. Larry's other interests included marveling at classic cars and faithfully cheering on his beloved Kansas City Chiefs. Larry's compassionate spirit, love for his family, and unwavering faith in the Lord were an inspiration to all who knew him. He was preceded in death by his parents, Woodrow Wilson Coleman and Shirley Drew, as well as his faithful canine companion, Apollo. His memory will continue to be cherished by his beloved wife, Becky Coleman; his children, including Heaven Lane; his grandchildren, including Kyleigh Sheridan, Jazmine Warsawski, JJ Warsawski, and Kayleigh Lane; his treasured great-grandson, Roman Sheridan; and many other loved ones and friends who miss him deeply.
