Gail and Larry Cole, Lynette Cole |
  Gail and Larry Cole have devoted their lives to the care of children in need. The Coles have four children, two biological and two adopted. The Coles’ love for their adopted daughter Lynette and her brother Sean was so strong, that they were willing to give up everything to provide them with a permanent home. When the Michigan courts refused the adoption because Lynette was of a different race than the Coles, they left their homes, their jobs, everything they knew in search of a place without such barriers. Inspired by her parents’ example, and strengthened by their love, Lynette went on to be a crowned Miss USA. She vows to use her title to speak on behalf of children who were not as fortunate as she. In addition to their truly inspiring adoption store, the Coles have fostered 127 young girls over the past 15 years.
