Hey Colin, its been awhile since Ive seen you. 5th grade was the best year ever since youve switched to Scioto Darby. Youve always been the joy to have in class. Everyday youd ask mrs. Gorby to dab and the whole class would go crazy. Going to heritage is a whole new ballgame without you and Im trying my best to stay on track because Im thats what youd like for me to do. I love ya man and Ill see you on the other side when my time comes best friend
Kyla, i know that ever since your brother passed away life has been so hard on you. You gotta keep your head high and do your best just like how I am. School is gunna get hard and you cannot let this bring you down. I love all of you guys and many thoughts and prayers are being held.

Thanks to all for your love and compassion. One can never know when our loved ones will be taken. Colin and Kyla are my heart. Life can never be the same but I take comfort knowing that Daddy and Robin are holding him in their arms and I await the day I can be with them

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of one of His Saints. Colin was a Saint that made it in. Comfort your hearts knowing that God Almighty has Colin in His hands. Praying your strength to go on and remember his youthful smile and ways.
