After graduation from high school, Coleen attended beauty school and worked in Indianola until beginning her family in the early 70’s. Coleen was known in the community as “God’s Little Cheerleader” befriending, encouraging, and praying for countless friends, pastors, and missionaries. Her small stature, big smile, and quirky mannerisms made strangers friends. She delivered Meals on Wheels in the community and wrote the monthly “Senior Treasures” column in Indianola’s City Gate newsletter. She enjoyed stamping and card games with her treasured church and prayer-partner friends. Coleen loved traveling, camping, and attending Southern Gospel concerts with Max. She was a dedicated mom attending countless little league games, wrestling meets, and Bible Quiz tournaments with her boys who were her pride and joy. Coleen loved God, trusted Jesus to lead her life, and was at peace with all. She’s now at rest – right in mind, soul, and spirit with Christ.
