As phenomenal as beating cancer is, he made it exponentially better by turning his knowledge, drive, and inspiration into a program to help others that or going through what he went through.
Cole was recognized Friday night at the 14th Annual Dick Vitale Gala as a beacon of light for the future, as well as proof that the $25 million that Vitale’s tireless work has raised thus far is working.
