Thank you so much for coming to Corning and visiting mom and dad. For bringing the wonderful memorial video of Colin and sharing it with them.

We love you all too, and think and hear about you all often. Please take care and keep in touch and if ever you need anything, let us know. Lots of love, rememberances and best wishes to all.

Dear Sara and Chris, I had the pleasure of meeting Colin at the "rehearsal party" for Matt and Emily. I am Matt's Aunt and I was attracted to your son immediately. He was as special as a child could be. God bless you all during this difficult time. Love, Aunt Diane Sugrue.

To say Colin brought joy to those around him would be an understatement. He was the embodiment of happiness and life. When I see his face, it brings me great comfort and love -- love that will continue through stories we share about our favorite little man. We love you guys and will always be here for you. Our prayers.

I love you two so much. My heart aches with you during this immeasurable pain. The Lord says that He is the "LIFTER OF OUR HEADS". As you grieve and during those times, moments, days when you don't feel like you can continue any longer, I pray He lifts your head and showers you with encouragement (even if you can only receive an ounce in that moment) You two are an amazing couple. I LOVE YOU DEARLY.

Chris and Sara, I am at a loss of words for you. Colleen and I are so sorry for your loss. It is amazing that we both had the exact same memory of Colin, Whenever Chris would come up to the plate we always heard from the crowd, "Daddy." We would look over and see a little child admire his father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Sara,
I have had the pleasure of knowing you professionally for many years, as I was a member of the Public Affairs Council at the Denver Chamber. In addition to doing a great job for our committee, you have always been so positive, cheerful and giving of your talents. When I learned that that little boy who was gone was yours, my heart became very heavy and truly aches for you. I have been praying for you and asking others to pray for you as well. May the Lord wrap His loving arms around you and hold you tight and may you find comfort knowing that the Lord is with you at all times. M.L. Richardson (formerly Tucker and formerly with Lafarge)

Chris, Sarah, Alexandria & Family,
Our condolences go out to you and your entire family. Words can not express the sadness and loss that is felt by a life lost so young. Our hearts bleed for you and I know our sorrow is lapsed by yours 100 times over. Colin was a beautiful, kind, and amazing being. The only way I can imagine his loss is to think that God longed for his spirit in heaven as much as we long for him now on Earth. I will never forget the pride and joy I saw in you Sarah while you carried Colin in your womb. Or the beauty of his little self and his amazing blonde curls. I pray that you can find peace and joy again in those memories and the many that followed. I know now that angels are real because Colin has got to be one, may both his and the lord grace bring comfort to you in time. Our prayers and thought remain with you.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

I stood with you on the banks of the river in Vail and held your beautiful Alexandria with an ache in my heart for the loss you were experiencing. I prayed for you at the moment and continue to pray for comfort and understanding at this time. I am very happy to see you understand the love of God and can turn to him at this time of great sorrow. I hope with time your extreme grief will turn to smiles in his memories. Please know that so many prayers are being sent to you.
