Gary Coleman will not be laid to rest this weekend as originally planned.It's bad enough the man's dead--why war over his body and its deposition, when his wishes were known? It sounds to me that a battle is being fought over control of Gary Coleman in death much like it was in life. Let the poor man rest in peace, for pity's sake.
With the late actor's ex-wife and estranged parents now warring over custody of his body, Coleman's Utah funeral has been canceled, the Salt Lake Tribune confirms.
Sue and Willie Coleman — estranged from the "Diff'rent Strokes" star at the time of his death at age 42 — plan to file an action for legal control over their son's remains. The grieving parents reportedly want Coleman's body delivered to his birthplace of Zion, Ill., where they currently reside.
Born, like other comic book characters, out of an otherwise trivial but life-changing animal bite, the Rabid Librarian seeks out strange, useless facts, raves about real and perceived injustices, and seeks to meet her greatest challenge of all--her own life.
