Deborah Ann Englert Coleman, 66, a lifelong resident of San Angelo, Texas passed away on July 29, 2021. Debbie was born November 1954, the second of three daughters to Ervin and Gladys Englert. She attended Holy Angels Elementary, Lee Junior High and graduated from Central High School in 1973. Debbie earned an associate degree in accounting from Abilene Business School and went on to work for GTE/Verizon for 36 ½ years. She was a member of the GTE bowling league for several years.
Debbie married the love of her life, Ray Coleman, on September 28, 1974. Her pride and joy were her daughter Jennifer and her three grandsons. She was a devoted lifelong member of St. Luke United Methodist Church in San Angelo. Debbie was an avid collector, particularly of dolls. One of her favorite joys in life was going to antique sales and estate sales with her husband and parents. Debbie also loved crafting—she was always working on various projects to give her family. She made homemade coin banks, quilts, photo albums, bird houses and many things that we will always treasure. She never missed sending heartfelt birthday cards to family, which many times included a party and cake! She always loved getting together for a good game of 42, and in fact, she had a large collection of fun and unique dominoes.
Debbie was one of the most loving, generous, and caring people you would ever meet. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by her husband Ray; daughter Jennifer Ann Coleman Emdy and husband Joshua of Carrollton, TX; grandsons Kelvin, Jeremy and Trevor Emdy; father Ervin Englert of San Angelo; sister Beverly Englert Currington and husband David of Canyon Lake, California; sister Denise Englert Maxwell and husband Fred of Carrollton, TX; In-laws Judy and Bob Coffman, Tommy and Terry Ellis and Bobby and Vicki Coleman of Abilene; and many nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.
