Irvin H. Cole

Dear Irv, it is with such great sadness that we must say goodbye. From the moment you came into our lives you made us feel loved and appreciated. Your wonderful and gentle soul will truly be missed. We will always love and appreciate you for the love and joy you brought to our lives. You will be forever in our hearts. Until we meet again.....Love, Dan and Gina.
P.S. Don't worry about mom, we'll take good care of her for you.

Dear Mary Ellen and family we are sorry to hear of your loss. Irv will always be remembered fondly for his gracious manner and infectious laughter. Praying for God's love and comfort to be yours at this time.
Much love;

Irv was a very special person who expressed love lavishly and was loved in return by all who knew him.

It has been such a pleasure to spend some time with Mary Ellen and Mr. Cole during the past several years and to witness their singing duo. I only hope that I can maintain my zest for life the way Mr. Cole did. There is definitely a void left by his death. My love and prayers go out to all the Cole family and especially to that wonderful lady - Mary Ellen!

Miss you Uncle Irv.

Mr. Cole was my most remembered high school teacher and greatly influenced my choice of a career path.

I love and miss you Grampy Cole.

I have never met a man who touched so many lives and made a difference to so many. I love Grampy Cole and family and will always consider them "my family". This world is a better place because he was in it. Love to you all!
Ray,Nell,and Amy.

Mr.Cole was one of the most caring teachers I had at Florida High in the late 50's. We mourn the loss of this great man.

Uncle Irv always welcomed everyone with a genuine smile and big hug that warmed our souls. He had that way of asking you to take a look at something and that fatherly way of talking with you. I hope he is remembered for his beautiful voice, his commitment to family, friends, and faith, and for the strength to be himself regardless of what he was facing. My condolences to my cousins and Mary Ellen for the loss of a husband and father and may you rest in peace, Uncle Irv.

Mary Ellen and family, Please know we are thinking of you at this sad time.
You were such a great couple, and we will miss him and all his very nice ways.
In sympathy and friendship. Jean Woolf and Vince Hunt

Dear Mary Ellen and family of Irv: I grieve with you at the loss of our friend. I wish there were something I could say or do that would ease the pain of losing someone you love. Since I cannot do that, what I can do is lift your needs up to God, asking Him to comfort you and give you peace, knowing that you did all that was required of you. Sincerely, Jenny and Harley
