He was a great supervisor of work to be done.
Mr. Coleman enjoyed watching westerns, spending time with his girls and grandchildren and being a collector of many things and animals over the years. Glen loved a good glass of milk, biscuits, bananas, and vitamins which almost made him invincible. Glen was good dad, and was a proud Frenchman. Glen was wise beyond the years.
