STAFFORD, COLE
Cole Joseph Stafford, 22, passed away Feb. 5, 2008. He was born April 11, 1985, in Las Vegas, and had been a lifelong resident. Cole graduated magna cum laude from Life Pacific College in May, 2007, and married the love of his life, Stacey, the following week. He dedicated his life to serving the Lord, and was the youth pastor at Cornerstone Christian Fellowship, where he left a legacy of faith and testimony through his life to the youth. His life was a tapestry of compassion and giving of himself to others. He gave of himself to missionary work in Africa, Panama, Thailand and Mexico, and gave mercifully to anyone in need. Cole was talented in photography, music and drama. He served his church on the worship team with guitar and drums, and loved to worship his Lord. In his short life, he lived a life that mattered, accomplishing unselfishly his life's dreams and goals. Cole left his thumbprint on the lives of all those he touched with his deep compassion and mercy. We will miss him all the days of our lives. Cole is survived by his wife, Stacey Ann Stafford; his parents, Joseph and Tammy Stafford; his brothers, Derek Stafford, Justin Stafford, Sean Stafford, and Calvin Moore; his sisters, Arielle Stafford and Amy Stafford; grandmother, Jane Stafford; his grandparents, James and Karen Post; in-laws, Gary and Diane Dawes; brother-in-law, Chris Dawes; and innumerable lifelong friends, aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family. Please contact the family regarding services. Donations can be made to Cornerstone Christian Fellowship, Cole Stafford Library, 5825 W. Eldora Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89146.
