Her favorite pastime was doing things with her grandsons, whether it was camping, teaching them how to cook, going to one of their special events, or watching them raid the pantry. She loved spending every minute she could with them.

She is survived by her husband Mike Cole; two sons, Chris of Springfield, Jeff (Laura) of Republic; and six grandsons, Bryan, Jayce, Tristen, Andrew, Tyler and Jonathan.
