Such a beautiful lady whom we will miss coming to McDonalds. Always a beautiful smile and a joy to visit with. Bless you all.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this sad time. Ms Coles was a sweet, friendly lady.
I am so sorry everyone's lost. I remember here as a young born. She and Coy were as good as they come. Prayers for all of the Family.
My deepest condolences on your loss. I spent many hours in Cave City and attended many all day singing and dinner on the ground with my Aunt Ruth Satterwhite and Uncle Lawrence Satterwhite.
I spent most of my childhood in Sandtown Arkansas. I attended Pools Chapel Free Will church. I knew Mrs. Lola as a Christian lady who I always looked up to. She was the example of a loving wife and mother to all her boys. When I recall childhood memories she comes to mind often. Prayers for the family.
