Lindsay Amanda Cole, born February 5, 1986, in New Orleans, passed away Wednesday, April 15, 2026, in San Angelo at the age of 40.
Lindsay loved stories. She studied philosophy and earned her bachelor's degree because she was drawn to life's biggest questions. She was someone who would sit with an idea, turn it over carefully, challenge it, and often find humor within it. She believed life was something to examine thoughtfully and also something to live fully.
She found joy in immersive worlds. Whether exploring the relentless landscapes of Doom, surviving the haunting beauty of Elden Ring, or embracing the challenge of Dark Souls and Bloodborne, Lindsay appreciated games that demanded persistence and resilience. She understood that difficulty could make achievement more meaningful.
She also shared that love of imagination with her daughter. Together, they built and explored side by side in Minecraft, creating their own worlds block by block. Above all, Lindsay loved spending time with Terra. Those moments, whether simple or significant, meant more to her than anything else.
Music was a constant companion in her life. She listened widely and without limits, always open to discovering something new or revisiting an old favorite. She also enjoyed writing, shaping her thoughts into words and continuing her lifelong love of storytelling in her own voice.
Lindsay is survived by her mother, Lori Cole, her daughter Terra Cole, her niece and nephew, Celes and Aidon Cole. Remembered by Amy Cole. She was preceded in death by her father, Dan Cole; her stepmother, Carol; and her brother, Brandon Cole.
Her memory lives on in the worlds she explored, the ideas she wrestled with, and the stories she carried with her.
