Implement the ITableLabelProvider interface and use it as the label 
provider in your TreeViewer.  The TreeViewer will see that you 
implemented the interface, and automatically call the getColumnImage 
method to find the correct image:

ITableLabelProvider.getColumnImage(Object element, int columnIndex)

Do you have to change the image if the contact's status changes?  I can 
explain this too if you need.
