Not sure what to say?

Im so sad for your loss i did not know him but heard his love of dogs may he RIp

My name is Christopher Zamora. Even though I didnt have the pleasure of knowing Colin for too long( a year) I did have the pleasure of knowing him and that is the more important. Collin was one of the most careing people I have ever known. And it wasnt that he was caring but that he was so caring! It mattered more to him how you felt that he did. Every time I saw him he would make you feel a little better about yourself and life. You never left him without feeling better about...

As a friend of Colin's Grandmother, Lee Rose, I send a heart felt prayer to everyone that has been at one time or another touched by Colin. I'm touched in what those have to say after his passing.
Sending love & light to all.

I never knew Colin personally but used to speak to him via FB - he seemed a genuine caring person and had such a lovely outlook on life and made me smile daily - I shall miss our chats and all the beautiful things he used to say - I know how it feels to loose a loved one and my heartfelt condolences go to all his family . I shed a tear for you and the smiles we shared. See you on the other side :) Amanda Wanstall-Riley (England)

Colin, my brother as you called me many, many times.... Knowing you, you have touched me deeply in my heart.... and your dreams were real, they are real and we shall move on from this day forth with your passion and energy leading us on.

"Ay... there's the rub... for what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil..." Your dreams will be upheld.... even the Polo Ponies I had personally selected for you... the ones you promised to love and care for and offered rides...

COLIN’s EULOGY FROM HIS DAD
September 28, 2010

Good friends and family,

On this difficult occasion, it is nearly impossible to know what to say. I considered reflecting on the good times I shared with Colin-- his sense of wonder, his craving for excitement and the many challenges he faced and surmounted. But I think it more important to simply tell you all how proud and happy I know Colin is to have you here with him, together.

Colin was an incredibly...

I knew Colin well as his academic advisor at CU Denver. We were both on the Tutition Appeals Committee. Colin was an intelligent, mature, articulate, young man who cared about his fellow students and was an active volunteer at the University to help others. He was respectful and kind to all people of all ages, races, cultures, and incomes. Of the thousands of students that I have known in the past 29 years, he is one of the students that I will never forget. Janet Postma

I am so sad to hear of this news. Colin was the very first boy I ever had a crush on back in the 1st grade. I only have good memories of growing up together. I hope his family is able to find peace.
