From our friends at the Center for Irish Music, remembering Nick Coleman, a man who told the stories of people in both Minnesota and Northern Ireland and did much to promote Irish culture in the Twin Cities.

We are deeply saddened to share the news that Nick Coleman, CIM parent and unbridled Irish music enthusiast, left this earth yesterday leaving a hole in our community. On Sunday night, after a beautiful weekend of music and craic at the Midwest Fleadh with Laura and his three young boys - and after winning a gold medal in recitation - Nick suffered a massive stroke that he could not have survived. Please keep the Coleman family in your prayers. Nick, we will miss you.
