Page Cole Bio
I am passionate about my relationships- my wife, kids, extended family and friends! I'm far from perfect, but I have a personal relationship with Jesus who offers me grace and helps me grow! I love being a part of a team of people that brings hope to seniors and their family members, by providing a way for them to stay in their own home in a safe and affordable way!
I love to laugh, listen to every kind of music available (yes, my iTunes library is my addiction- 7,000 songs strong...) Just as important, I want to help make my community, my state, my country and my world a better place each day, simply by doing good things and being a positive influence!
