MEMORIAL-REV. DAVID COLEMAN

This Illinois House resolution formally mourns the passing of Reverend David Coleman Sr., a long-time pastor and community leader in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood. It recognizes his more than 50 years of leadership at New Mt. Sinai Missionary Baptist Church, where he transformed a former warehouse into a permanent home for the congregation and hosted various civic and community events. The bill directs that a copy of the resolution be presented to Pastor Coleman's family as an expression of sympathy from the state legislature.
