She loved the home that she and her husband built and took great pride in it. She had a love for antiques much like her mother and her grandmother before her.

Warren; her mother, Doris B. Cole of Dover; a sister, Dayle Bennett of Baltimore, Md.; two brothers, Rick Cole of Marydel, Md. and, Bruce Cole (Debra), of Dover; and three nieces, Shelby, Sage and Sarah.
