I was so sorry to hear this sad news-- I remember seeing him many times over the years, always smiling-- and my last time was when his grandfather Fondren died in Tuscumbia...Remember all you happy times with him and celebrate his live.

I have never met Colt in person but I have heard so much about him it is as if we were long-time buddies.
Our Daughter, Haley, has told us so much about him. Haley met Colt through Best Buddies & instantly feel in love with him.
You are in our thoughts & prayers now & in the coming days. We trust God when he says that "he is close to the broken-hearted & he is attentive to their cries. He will make himself known in a very special way."
God bless & thank you for sharing Colt with this world.
Love,

My daughter Haley had the privilege of having him for a buddy this past year in Best Buddies. He captured her heart from day one and she says he was VERY good at flirting. He will be missed. What an amazing guy. Thank you for sharing him in the Best Buddies program- he truly touched many hearts.

To the family: my deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one. Losing a child is one is very painful, I know because I have lost one. I have comfort in the hope of the resurrection. Jesus promised that there's going to be a resurrection of all those in the grave and they will hear his voice and come out. John 5:28,29 Also at John 11:25 Jesus said "I am the resurrection and the life, he that exercises faith in me though he dies will come to life again". What a wonderful time that will be when we will see our loved ones again! To learn more about God's promises, please visit www.jw.org
