     Tim Coleman loves hunting and fishing and is an entrepreneur who owns and operates Southern Hydro Vac Inc. (Roswell).  Pleasant Grove’s Pastor, Jim Garvin, has worked numerous spiritual retreat weekends with Tim, says: “Tim is a sensitive and powerful musician who’s love for Jesus radiates into the hearts of listeners through the songs and hymns he plays.  We are indeed fortunate that he is also coming for this upcoming Mother’s Day Sunday!”  Tim and his wife Tina were raised in Monroeville, AL and have two grown children Matthew and Rebecca, and one grandson, Cayden.
