Jessie Marie (Frost) Cole, age 73, passed away Saturday, October 1, 2016 at Fredonia Regional Hospital. Jessie was born April 1, 1943 in Eureka, Kansas to Eddie Pete and Emma Louise (Van) Frost. On November 26, 1980, she married Leslie Duane Cole having met him while working at Boeing Aircraft. Leslie resides at the home. Jessie loved to love on animals---whether they were cats, dogs and even in her younger days skunks and raccoons. Her love also was given to her son, Scott, who described his mother as very kind-hearted and having a great sense of humor. Her hobbies included crocheting and collecting Elvis memorabilia. She had a great passion for Elvis music, but an even greater passion for Christmas. My, how she loved Christmas! Jessie would begin decorating and working on her display in October and had one of the biggest Christmas light displays in Severy, Kansas. Scott said one year she had between 50-60,000 lights which always took a month or more to put up. She was very well known and will be remembered for her tremendous and huge Christmas display.
Jessie worked at various locations throughout her life including Boeing, Beechcraft, Cessna and later the Twilight Manor Nursing Home in Howard, Kansas. She also took personal care of her aging mother.
Jessie is survived by her husband, Leslie Cole and son, Scott Jones, both of Severy and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Julie Marie Jones, her parents, and sister Lucille Betty Dalbey. All of these she loved and touched deeply.
