COLEMAN, Robert (Bob) Charles Passed away on February 9, 2010. Survived by loving wife Jan, daughters Rosslynn (Mark) and Shannon, son Patrick and granddaughter Chelsea. Born in 1938, Bob grew up in Vancouver, BC, met Jan in 1959 and started a family 7 years later. A UBC Education alumnus, Bob earned his degree in 1961 and started teaching at Moscrop in Burnaby. In the late seventies, the Coleman family uprooted and moved to Langley where Bob taught at Willoughby Elementary School until his retirement in 1994. A devoted family man and teacher, Bob will be sorely missed by his family and friends alike. The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at GF Strong's ALS clinic as well as the Palliative Care unit at VGH. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the ALS Society of BC would be gratefully accepted, 1.800.708.3228 www.alsbc.ca .
