Susan Marie Coleman

Susan Marie Coleman (Commerce City, CO) passed away on July 17, 2021. She was born in Cleveland, OH in 1948. She is preceded in death by her parents, Bob & Dorothy Schmies, and her niece, Karey Gengler. She is survived by her loving husband of 48 years, Paul Coleman, her four children: Bill Coleman (Marie Coleman), Jamie Nein (Marc Nein), Paula Scott (Adam Scott) and David Coleman, her most prized possessions, her eight grandchildren: Katie Coleman, Derek Coleman, Evan Coleman, Carson Coleman, Aiden Scott, Alex Nein, Brayden Nein, and Ruby Scott, her sister Karyn Carosella (Dave) and brother Ken Schmies (Carolyn), numerous nieces and nephews and her chocolate Lab, Charlie dog.

Above all, she was an amazing mother, caring wife, loving grandmother, and wonderful friend, serving as a consistent source of strength for all who knew her. She will be greatly missed by many, but her legacy lives on through all of those that she loved and entertained throughout her life.

Sue had a passion for reading, decorating for every holiday, shopping (sales/coupons), coffee, everything Wizard of Oz, chocolate candy molds, nutcrackers, sunflowers, silly socks, but first and foremost, loved her family and friends. If you were lucky enough to receive a card from Sue, you enjoyed the confetti that spilled out of the envelope (even if it didn’t match the occasion).

She was known for her infectious smile and laugh, kind spirit, caring soul, and giving and thoughtful personality. She acted as a second mom to many friends of her children. She was the most selfless person, always looking to give you something you enjoyed. You never left the Coleman house empty handed.

Sue handled her life graciously and will be remembered for fighting through breast cancer and all her other countless surgeries like the strongest women alive. She was a donor and continued to contribute to others, even after her life ended.
