With hearts heavy with grief, we share the passing of Colin, of New Castle, Delaware, who left us far too soon on Saturday, August 9, 2025. Though his time here was tragically short, the love he gave and the memories he leaves behind will endure forever. Colin was - and always will be - a beloved son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend. He found peace in the quiet beauty of nature - whether walking among the snow-covered trees in the forest parks or feeling the sun on his face along the sandy beaches of Florida. These were the moments where his soul felt most free. Colin is now resting in the loving arms of the Lord, where he is finally at peace. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him deeply.
