Colt was an incredible husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend. He was the rock that held all things together. He was the most sacrificial man on this earth and never stopped serving those around him. He was humble and kind and had a fierce love for all of his family and only wanted to bring peace and unity in this life. He found great joy in playing pranks and was the type of father that always played with his children. He taught them to work hard, but always take time to play! He kept us all wild and enjoyed the simplicity of life. He loved the outdoors whether it was sitting at the Farm watching the animals, scuba diving, riding dirt bikes, going on the boat or finding hidden places on a hiking trail. He instilled a sense of adventure in his family and always made life FUN! He never stopped learning new skills and imparting the skills he learned to others. He had a profound connection to his Lord, Jesus Christ and a deep desire for others to understand how much their Heavenly Father loves them. He would always say that life is a process and the difficult times we experience in our lives are to help us gain knowledge to be the person Heavenly Father desires us to be and to help others who are going through trials we have already faced and overcome. He was truly irreplaceable.
