Floyd James Coleman, 69, of Austin, AR, passed away peacefully on February 22, 2024. He was born in Brenham, TX, on April 27, 1954. His father, Floyd John Coleman, preceded him in death in 1982.
He is survived by his loving wife, Kim Coleman; his children, James Coleman (Kim) of Gatesville, TX, Danielle Coleman of Tomball, TX; grandsons, Lane Coleman and Colton Coleman; his mother, Willie Mae Coleman of Belton, TX; sisters, Shirley Youngblood (Larry), of Belton, TX, Charlotte Martin (Victor) of Belton, TX and many much-loved nieces, nephews and cousins.
Floyd worked for H-E-B in Texas for 27 years. He also worked for RheinChemie Additives, retiring in 2020.
Floyd enjoyed roaming the Arkansas countryside on the 4-wheeler & side-by-side with his wife, family, and friends. He enjoyed hunting with his son & grandsons, passing on his love of the outdoors. He was an avid Cowboys fan, loved to joke around, and loved Whataburger with extra jalapenos. Floyd was always up for a good game of pool, dominoes, and cards and would play for hours while dodging (accurate) accusations of the occasional cheat. Floyd was loved by many and will be missed.
Visitation will be on Saturday, March 2, from 3-5 pm at A Natural State Funeral Service in Jacksonville, AR. A celebration of life will be held in Texas at a later date.

Floyd was one of the most caring leaders I have worked for . To this day many of the things that I do are simply the standards I learned from Floyd. My prayers go out to family during this time of loss.
Love and prayers for his family. I’m sorry for your pain.
You were and will always be my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You will be deeply missed!! Your love for my sister was undeniable & beautiful!! RIP Herbert!!! Tell Dad we said hi!! Y’all go 4 wheeling now.
To my Whataburger Buddy. I guess you know you beat that cancer you did you did. I know you are 4 wheeling all over those beautiful green meadows. You be sure and learn the ropes up there because Kim and all the rest of us will be up there on day and we expect the grand tour. Until that day love you Buddy.
No matter how old we are, it’s never easy to lose a parent. Our prayers are with you and your family as you grieve. We love you!! 🥰
Kim, your love for Floyd showed in your smile and the twinkle in your eyes when you spoke of him. His love for you showed in that sly grin when I would see you and him banter. I am so sorry for your loss. I know you must feel a part of your being is gone. It will improve with time but I personally don’t believe you ever feel whole again. My sympathy to the children and extended family and friends. Floyd is and will continue to be missed by many.
