Author of Father of the Man Dr. Peter L. Colman

…Created half to rise, and half to fall; Great Lord of all things, yet a prey to all…
(Pope’s Essay on Man)

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.
(Pope’s Essay on Criticism)

One never runs head-long into a darkened room, unless he knows where the supporting beams are located.
(Bambara proverb)

If, indeed, the forefathers had eaten sour grapes, ‘Bob’ Colman seemed to be one of the sweeter exceptions. The handsome little lad who enjoyed visiting and posing with his ruddy, genial grandpa at the old Auburn farm, was the same young man whom his Manchester neighbors and classmates admired and loved. His 1942 edition high school yearbook, the ‘Oracle,’ pictures a handsome, boyish Adonis with white shirt and suit jacket, and the ubiquitous candy-striped tie in a tight Windsor knot. The image, like so many others of a previous era, is not unlike the familiar picture-perfect Hollywood images of Rudy Valley or Errol Flynn.
