Eddie Earl Coleman, III was born on August 14, 1986, in Denver, Colorado to Eddie Earl Coleman Jr. and Cherra Trimble. Eddie was the first be born of two children, but the only to this union. From an early age, Eddie was characterized as an old man trapped in a young man's body with a fierce love for the Lord. Early in age, Eddie was able to read, comprehend and articulate the Word of God. Many will say this man was taken before his time; however, the spiritual age of Eddie is way beyond 29 years and it was time for him to return to The One who created him. This undeniable soldier of the Lord has been summoned to return to his Father's house. As a youth, Eddie always showed signs of interest in learning from the elders in the family. At the age of 10, he could be found sitting with his beloved aunt, Marden, reading the Bible. Later, he would stop by his Aunt Hazel's house to listen to a well-needed lecture on doing the right things in life. Of course, he would make his rounds and spend time with his Rebecca Debose "Big Nana", Mary Debose "Nana", who happened to be the loves of his life. His grandmother, Constance Trimble-Smith raised Eddie along with his brother, Rodney, who he adored. Eddie completed his primary and secondary education in Colorado and received his high school equivalency diploma in 2005. Eddie used his natural gift of communication to assist him in excelling in the workforce. He worked for several organizations and excelled in the areas of sales and service. Eddie aspired to continue improving himself by establishing a career path as a Human Service Professional. Eddie was a member of the House of Hope Christian Ministries and often supported Pastor Richard and First Lady Pam Lewis in any way he was able. If Eddie was not working, he could be found reading and studying the Word of God. Eddie loved old school music and enjoyed spending time with the older relatives; he enjoyed learning about history in general or just spending time with them to increase his knowledge base. He was truly an old soul. Eddie was also a comedian and often would do impressions of individuals who he admired and cared about, to include his Pastor Richard Lewis, Mr. Mark Pipkin, himself, and his grandfather, Manual Smith. On September 8, 2008, Eddie married his love, Natalie Alberta Gill. Three children were born to this union, and Natalie is expecting another one in December 2015. Eddie's wife and family were the pride of his existence. If he was not working, he could be found spending quality time with his wife and children and his beloved grandmother, Constance Trimble-Smith. Eddie would go above and beyond to prove his love to his wife and family. He would take them to the park, paint his daughters' nails, even allow his daughter to give him makeovers, or just cook a delicious meal for them. There was not too much he would not do to prove his love to his family. Eddie Earl Coleman, III was set free to return to his Father's mansion on Monday, October 19, 2015.
