Arcola L. Foster "Cola"

June 6, 1968 — August 15, 2019

Arcola L. Foster, a twin, was born June 6, 1968 to James H. and Dorothy L. Foster in Wilmington, Delaware. She made her untimely death August 15, 2019.

Arcola attended William Penn High School, class of 1986.

Cola then became a security guard for Allied Barton where she worked until she became disabled in 2012.

Cola was blessed with her loving son Tyron L. Foster in 1989 to whom she cherished and loved dearly. He was the apple of her eye. Cola also shared a special relationship with her oldest niece, Chanta Marshall and a great-niece KeiAsia Morris.

Arcola was a sour patch. She had a mean exterior and a sweet interior. She would do anything for you that she was able to do. She loved being around family laughing and having a good time. She enjoyed eating her crabs, lobsters and sipping her beer. She enjoyed being there with her nieces and nephews. She loved them all and was always there for them.

If you came in contact with Cola you knew she had a welcoming attitude that made you feel comforted, like she was cool to hand with. She never judged you. She was an amazing person and  fun she to hang with. She will be missed dearly.
