Troy Cole

Troy Flynn Cole, loving son, family member and good friend to many, passed from this world into the loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ early Saturday May 23rd, 2015 due to complications from diabetes. Troy worked for several Phoenix area colleges before finding his true calling in the hotel industry. Troy worked in upscale hotels as desk clerk, reservationist and concierge. The last in Phoenix being the Biltmore, before relocating to a hotel in Portland, Oregon. Troy was a natural at this. His caring heart, attentive ear, quick wit and winning smile made an indelible impression on all he met. When Troy's health began to fail, losing a limb and his eyesight to diabetes, he returned home to Phoenix, where he continued to live independently until his 20 year battle with diabetes came to an end. Troy was a tender, loving soul, who enjoyed the simple things in life. He brought a happiness and joy to all that loved and knew him. He will be sadly missed, yet fondly remembered by all that knew him. We love you Troy. God bless you.
