To all of Colty Monsters' Family: I know Colty was only here a short time, but I do know that he was loved by his family and so many friends. He was lucky to have all of you in his life, just like you were lucky to have him in yours. Remember all of his 'wet kisses', hugs, beautiful smile. I know Sully Bear and Colty Monster are both looking over all of you and cheering on the Brewers and will be the Badgers and Packers too, when it's time. Your memories will always be in your hearts and no one can take those from you. All of you have my deepest sympathy and prayers. Love to all of you. Jeanne (AKA:Ms. Jeanne)

There are no words that can comfort you now, but knowing precious Colton is in the care of his big brother and angel, Sully, and is no longer suffering, hopefully can bring you some feeling of peace. The Ustruck and Murphy family's love and commitment for one another is such an inspiration. My sincere sympathy and much love to you all.

Heavenly Father is blessed to have Colton back with him. The absence of his physical being here causes us such sadness but he is free now from his bodily pain. Free to be the great child of God running with his brother.

Bill - We are so sorry to learn about your loss of your son Colton and your late son Sullivan. I had no idea what your family has been going through.

We have both had our share of losses and yet we try to move forward and go with god in these difficult times. We will be praying for you and your family to get through these hard times , God Bless you all

Words cannot describe how your family must be feeling and dealing with Colty's life and death! To lose not one, but two awesome young sons just does not seem right! Only the Lord Jesus can fully help us understand why these things are acceptable to us! We send our prayers and love to your entire family!
