It is with heavy hearts that the family of Gerald Anthony Coleman announce his passing which occurred on Friday, June 28, 2024, at the Rocmaura Nursing Home, Saint John, N.B. Born in Lower Norton, NB on July 17, 1939, he was the son of the late David and Margaret (Doherty) Coleman.
In the early 60’s, Gerald went to work for Irving on the Saint John River on the log sorter. When he left Irving, he went to work for the Canadian Coast Guard. After that, he went into farming and lumbering. In 1986 he bought the meat store in Hampton and continued with it until 2020 when the pandemic started. He continued to run the gravel and lumber business and doing a bit of gardening until 2022, when he went to St. Joseph Hospital.
