Jerry Trivon Coleman

Jerry Trivon Coleman, born April 28, 1985, lived in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and is remembered by his community for the steady presence he brought to everyday life. Those who knew him recall a life rooted in the rhythms of family, neighborhood and the friendships formed in his hometown. Jerry’s life, though cut far too short, was shaped by the ordinary commitments and small joys that make a person beloved by family and friends.

Jerry’s funeral arrangements were handled by Lindenwood Cemetery in Fort Wayne. The published memorial notice notes his full name and dates — a brief but official acknowledgment of a life that mattered to others. Though public records and local remembrances about Jerry are concise, they confirm he was a 31-year-old Fort Wayne resident at the time of his passing on September 13, 2016.

Those who wish to honor Jerry’s memory might remember him through the community ties he held in Fort Wayne and by offering kindness to those who knew him. For many, the simplest remembrances — a shared story, a quiet visit to a favorite place, or tending to a grave — keep a person’s presence alive.

Jerry’s death was reported by local news outlets and confirmed by the Allen County Coroner. While that fact is part of the public record, the focus here is on Jerry the person: a son of Fort Wayne whose life mattered to those around him. May this brief memorial serve as a respectful place to recall his name and the imprint he left on his community.
