Hi Mike and Jill,
I'm remembering so many Bible quizzing Saturdays mornings and Sunday nights at the church. Colten had God's word written on his heart. Praying that the Lord will shelter you in this time.

Hi Mike and Jill. I wish I could have met your son Colten. He was similar in appearance to my sons. Dale and I send our thoughts and love to you, your family and his two girls.
