Grace Cole of Mooresville NC, peacefully passed away from complications of Dementia on October 21, 2020 in Melbourne, FL.

Grace was born in McElhany, MO to Homer and Grace McCaffree on April 1, 1933, the youngest of four. She married her lifetime love, Russell Cole in Thayer, KS on September 9, 1951, who preceded her in death in 2007.

Grace loved God and was an active member of Triplett United Methodist Church in many areas including: The Golden Trippers, the Fellowship Sunday School Class, and United Methodist Women. Every Sunday morning, she could be found socializing in the Narthex before taking ‘her’ spot in the sanctuary. She adored the Children’s Ministries at Triplett and could often be found helping with the Nursery and Vacation Bible School.

Grace had a passion for both gardening and quilting. She loved flowers and could always be seen tending to and enjoying her garden. She happily shared her flowers with everyone, often making decorative arrangements for church dinners. She was also an active member of the Mooresville Centerpiece Quilters’ Guild for many years. She made innumerable quilts during her lifetime, giving most of them away to family and friends for special occasions. She especially enjoyed creating baby quilts and using her talents to donate “comfort quilts” and “cuddle buddy bags” to those in need.

Grace is survived by her four beloved children: Arthur Cole, Gregg Cole, Nancy Helms (Jeff), and Kim Armstrong. She was also blessed with 9 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren.

A graveside service will be held at Triplett United Methodist Church, Mooresville, NC at 11:00am on Tuesday, November 24th. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Cemetery Fund at Triplett UMC.
