Samuel Cole Obituary
SAMUEL "SAM" LEWIS COLE
March 9, 1967 October 13, 2019
Sam passed away peacefully after a long courageous battle with cancer. In his final days he was surrounded by family and friends. Born in Paducah, Kentucky, Sam moved to different locations as his late father, Sammy Lee Cole, was a career military man. Sam attended the University of North Carolina and after graduation, served his country in the United States Air Force. After his military service, Sam was employed by various Military Defense Contractors. Throughout his career he continued to move around the United States. Sam moved back to Colorado Springs in 2010 and ended his long and successful career with Aleut Management Services. Sam loved vacationing in Hawaii, listening to music, especially Motown. He was a big fan of Star Trek, The Andy Griffin Show, Perry Mason, and spent his final days enjoying some of his favorite episodes. Even though not a country music fan, one of his favorite songs was Clint Black's State of Mind..."Ain't it funny how a melody can bring back a memory, Take you to another place in time, Completely change your state of mind, Walkin' down a lonely highway not feelin' alone"...rest in peace Sam.
We'll miss you dearly.
