DAVID JAMES COLE


 
   We are sad to announce the passing of an amazing man, David James Cole on Monday, August 29, 2016 at the age of 81 years. Dad passed comfortably at home. During his last few days with us, he was surrounded by family and love, just as he lived.
   Left to deeply miss Dad are his loving and devoted wife, Jeanette; sister, Margaret Christopher; children, David, Jane (Saad), Stuart (Aneta) and Jamie (Kristy); along with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
   On February, 24th, 1935, Dad was born in Netley Abbey, Hampshire England. In 1967, Dad moved to Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada in search of a new and promising life with his loving wife and family.
   Over Dad's life he had many careers, ultimately retiring from Stony Mountain Penitentiary, 21 years ago.
   In his time with us, Dad had several joys, such as competition shooting, where he proved to be a Master Marksmen year after year. He loved music, movies, boxing, golf, sea food, new and old friends and his family the most.
   Respectfully, and in compliance with Dad's wishes no formal Funeral Service will be held. Instead we will celebrate his life with a private family gathering.
   Although he is no longer with us, he will live forever in our hearts and memories and is now surrounded by his family and friends who have passed before him.

 ”Love you Dad, Cheers!!!”

I had the pleasure of meeting and spending some time with Mr and Mrs Cole, and their extended family through my good friend Jane Radi, their daughter. Jane's Dad, was such a warm wonderful man, a perfect gentleman, it was clear that he was very dedicated to his family and loved them dearly. My most sincere condolences to the Coles at this time of loss and sadness.
