HUNDREDS COLEMAN FAMILY FUNERALS AFTER DUCK BOAT CAPSIZING TRAGEDY

via eurweb:

We can only imagine the pain the Coleman family is feeling after losing nine members of the clan in the recent duck boat capsizing tragedy. On Friday at a funeral in Indiana, four victims of the tragedy were mourned and celebrated.

Bishop G. Victor Morrisey Jr. said that one of them, Glenn Coleman, “could have saved himself, [but] wouldn’t leave his kids.’’

Morrisey told the congregation at Grace Apostolic Church in Indianapolis he believes Glenn, 40, made a heroic attempt to rescue his three youngsters. But he perished along with 9-year-old Reece, 7-year-old Evan and Arya, 1.

I believe Glenn could have saved himself, I believe he could have got away by himself,’’ the clergyman said.

“But he wanted to make sure his family was going to be all right. He wasn’t going to leave his children to fend for themselves. He was able to corral all of his family together — his two sons and his baby.’’

His wife, Tia, who survived, said right after the ship went under, and her husband was pulled out of the stormy Ozark lake, “he had all three of my babies.’’

As we reported, total of 17 people died as a result of the capsizing.
