My Friend Doug Coleman

I have a deep sorrow that is in my heart this day

Since I heard my friend Doug has passed away

I have known this fine man for many long years

For his wife and all his family I do to God pray

Doug was a man who tried to make things better

Dedicating his life to the community where he lived

He served as a trustee and a County commissioner

I think back and find I have fond memories relived

I remember when he and his wife Kathy were married

A young couple who proved their love would ever be

Doug worked after school hours until he graduated

Then driving one of Boone’s trucks I would then see

Doug some day I will be with you up in God’s place

There we can talk over all the good times we knew

Until that time you shall ever be in my heart and mind

It was so great that I had a wonderful friend like you
