Pam,

I am so sorry about Kolin. Just trying to contact him about my niece just starting USNA the other day. Life is so short!

Always think about you, Kolin and your parents. Never met Katie.

Take care Pam.

I met Kolin about 8 years ago through sports activities that our daughter's shared. I immediately admired the man and the family for everything he and they stood for. As time went on, our daughters competed against each other in numerous sports and we became good friends. It was clear and apparent to me that this man was invested in his family like few I have ever come across. I even purchased one of Kolin's car's, of course it was in mint condition. The world is a better place because of Kolin. He will be missed. We are heartbroken for Pam and Katie, but we know they are strong and will get through this. Bill, Deb, Karisa & Holly
