Colten was such an outgoing and amazing person from the very start; he never met a stranger. He had the most beautiful smile and contagious laugh. He had a tremendous love for animals , old people, and little kids. He loved his Appaloosa horses and had his “Farley Appaloosa’s” herd well on its way with 3 babies due this year. Colten was definitely an Angel on earth, the way he touched and changed so many lives. He was taken way too soon and will be forever loved and missed every day. Words cannot describe how proud he made us, and how blessed we are to be his parents and to call him our son. Flowers will be accepted or a donation can be made to your local animal shelter in Colten’s honor.
