Not sure what to say?

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. We worked together for Virginia Beach schools. I learned so much from her including patience and open mindedness. Working with her was the highlight of my work with Virginia Beach schools

Mrs. Cole was my 4th grade teacher at Linkhorn Park Elementary School around 1972. She was a wonderful teacher. She had a great sense of humor and a love for teaching that was obvious. I saw her at the Virginia Steak House in Virginia Beach having lunch 10 years ago or more, and I spoke to her. She was so sweet. My sympathy goes out to her family.

I was sorry to hear of your loss. Connie was a good friend to my parents, Bill and Alice Myers. I remember her from Eastern Shore and bagging her groceries at the Belo where I worked. The picture is how I remember her...cheerful and smiling.

Connie always brightened my day as I served as the HWD at Gayton Terrace. I was able to do a virtual visit with her a little while ago. She will be missed by many. May you all be blessed through your grieving. Sincerely, Kendra Booher

I first got to know Connie as a young boy prior to her marriage to my cousin, Buddy. Throughout all the following years I came to love her as a friend and benefited from her kindness, generosity, optimism, wonderful sense of humor and her unflagging honesty. One did not ask Connie for her opinion unless prepared for her answer. I will sorely miss her wonderful presence.

Extending my deepest sympathy to the family of Connie Cole. May her memory be eternal.

Ms Connie will be dearly missed by our family; we have known her for over 35 years. As all of her friends would agree, she was a gracious lady always ready to serve others, with a quick wit that also enjoyed a good hearty laugh with you. As fellow Believers, we look forward to that Day when we share Eternity together with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
