Kit Cole

I had some unforgettable social times with Kit. She was much more than a businessswoman. RIP

Outstanding memories of a most gifted and generous friend to our family, always in gratitude for magic memories.

Very sad news to learn of Kit´s passing.

A long distance friendship we valued & enjoyed.

When i think of Kit , i see the classic line from the 1958´ movie & character `Auntie Mame´ played by Rosalind Russell playing over again in my thoughts ...

".... Yes live that´s the message...... Yes life is a banquet .... and most poor suckers are starving..... "

And that is what Kit Cole did each day. Live.

The challenges life delivers to us all, Kit met with the enthusiasm and vigour of a champion. Here´s another opportunity, let´s go.

Sometimes at the exasperation of those nearby.

Yet when Peter read´s Kit´s personal `Balance Sheet of Life´, the ledger clearly shows Kit left this world a far better place for us all.

To be the one who breaks the glass ceilings and opens new pathways for those following to enjoy will always leave a few bruises and scratches. They heal. The opportunities for others only grow.

If Kit had 1 frustration with life , my best guess, there are only 24
hours in each day.

Those who might detract , simply could not keep up. That is not a criticism, as few of us could match Kit´s pace.

Now Kit will enjoy the rest so well deserved, allowing others to pick up the challenges still to be met.

Eternal peace is your´s Kit.
Thank you for the friendship

Rest in peace, and may you be fondly remembered and ever blessed. Watch, too, over St. Vincent's Dining Room in San Rafael.

Kit Cole was a force of nature. Awoman with a warm heart and a steely dedication for the rights and advancement of women. She was featured in a book I published, "100 Faces of Marin." I had the pleasure of knowing Kit on a p ersonal level. She was always willing to give a presentation, volunteer her services, or just simply listen. Oh, and she was a beautiful woman, inside and out. Thank
you Kit, we all benefited from your life well-lived.

Kit was an incredibly accomplished woman and a wonderful friend. She was a mentor to many women. Kit contributed so much to the community, to her friends and most of all to her family. We had great times together for almost 30 years and I will miss her terribly

It was a privilege to be a co-grandparent with Kit. She was ever optimistic and wiz bang smart. She will be missed.
