WILLIAM TROY COLE

Funeral services for William Troy Cole, 43, of Monroe, will be held at 2:00 
PM, Sunday, January 13, 2013 in the chapel at Mulhearn Funeral Home, 
Sterlington Road, Monroe, with Rev. Tony Smith and Rev. Harrison Tribble 
officiating. Kathy Broadnax will sing. Interment will follow at Mulhearn 
Memorial Park Cemetery.

Troy was born in Wichita, KS on July 15, 1969 and passed away Wednesday, 
January 9, 2013, at his residence. Troy enjoyed hunting, fishing, and working 
on anything. If he couldn't fix it, he would find someone who would. He had 
his bedroom arranged for his TV and netbook while he was bedbound.

Troy had a swimming accident on June 2, 1985 at Riverton and broke his neck. 
He spent 3 months at St. Francis Hospital and 3 more months at Children's 
Hospital in New Orleans. While he was there, he got his GED. After he came 
home, he went to Delta Ouachita and got his diploma in accounting. He started 
at New Horizons Independent Living Center. Later when his van was ready he 
went to work for Fastserv Medical. He was ATS and CRTS certified. He sold 
wheelchairs, vans, and anything else a disabled person might need. While he 
was working he helped get the Monroe Transit for the disabled in our area. He 
also helped with the Disabled SKI Clinic.

Troy is survived by his mother, Mary E. Cole of Monroe; half-sister, Deb Mills 
of Goddard, KS, aunts, Rita Conner and husband Ken of Columbia, Patricia Cady 
of West Monroe; uncle, Dale Cady of Monroe; first cousins, Teresa Williams and
