Michael Gene Coffman

Hark now, hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly
Into the mystic
When that fog horn blows
I will be coming home
I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it
Then magnificently we will float
Into the mystic -
Van Morrison

bright light in their lives. Michael had a need to express his creativity, his passions
included but were not limited to, painting, gardening, and refurbishing old things.

for over 30 years. Michael and Lori met in Houston Texas in 1990,they shared an
