Mary Anne Coleman's Obituary
Mary Anne passed away on June 2, with her beloved husband and daughter at her side. She was born in Blytheville, AR, on Sept. 30, 1934, to Richard and Eupal Robeson.
Mary Anne was a founding member in the 1950’s of Trinity Baptist Church in her hometown of Blytheville. She was an active member of Beta Sigma Phi (International Women’s Network) for over 30 years. She was also a realtor in both Little Rock and Memphis.
Mary Anne had many interests and talents, but she most enjoyed spending time with her husband, daughter, grandkids and ‘grand-dogs.’ She was the ultimate ‘Grandmother,’ as the grandkids called her.
She was a talented gardener, artist, chef, decorator and so much more. Her gregarious personality made it easy to become her friend. She and Charles loved entertaining and travelling with the British and Thunderbird car clubs to various events.
Mary Anne was preceded in death by her parents and sister June Russell. She is survived by her daughter Tanya Augustine (Jamie), and three grandchildren – Lexy, Jack, and Mary-Margaret.
The visitation will be held from 12:00 p.m. until the service time at 1:00 p.m., Tuesday, June 8th at Memorial Park Funeral Home. Interment will be in Memorial Park Southwoods Cemetery.
