William Randal Cole, to many “Jabo”, received the beautiful gift of complete healing on October 14, 2021 when he went home to be with the Lord. Jabo was born on June 21, 1953 in Talladega, AL to James and Frances Cole. He is survived by his wife, Lisa; his daughter Noelle Limbaugh (Matt), Wil Cole (Annie), Jake Cole (Brett), his grandchildren Madie James, Colt and Brody Limbaugh, and ClementineCole.

Jabo was a graduate of Talladega High School class of 1971, adolescent state table tennis champion, a passionate baseball player, and had a life-long career in the coal mining industry. Jabo was a servant to his community whether it was coaching little league or cheering on the local team. He was a devoted Father and Grandfather, and a loving husband to Lisa for 46 years. Together they were involved at Trinity United Methodist Church since 1978.

The celebration of life will be held Tuesday October 19, 2021 at Trinity United Methodist Church (Oxmoor location) in Homewood, AL. Visitation 12-1pm and service to follow 1-2pm. A private family interment will follow the service.
