Still, Kole has many fun and happy memories of his time as a Colorado Thunderhawk. As a freshman he enjoyed being in his school's marching band where he played bass guitar alongside his big brother, Kaler who played trumpet. In his sophomore year, he earned a spot on the swim team where he participated in numerous events in the pool. As a junior, he remembers the fun of attending what he and his friends refer to as "Mormon prom," a spring formal event put on by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in his part of Colorado. His favorite memory of his senior year was the selection of his marching band - where he played vibraphone - to go to state competition, for the first time in the school's history - but of course, the coronavirus reared its ugly head and "we didn't get to go!"
Currently on the "hobo plan" taking a semester off, Kole's future plans - if this unprecedented health crisis can be brought under control - include attending either BYU-Idaho or Dixie State University to study towards an engineering degree ... and perhaps serving a mission for his church.
Kole is another handsome and amazing young Sappington family member of whom we are very proud. Congratulations for your success, Kole, and we look forward to being a witness to your next chapters.
As your grandmother, I pray you will always believe in yourself as much as I believe in you. I can't promise to be here for the rest of your life, but I can promise to love you for the rest of mine!
