Spreading Love After the Sudden Loss of Colby

Early Friday morning (November 14, 2025), our family experienced an unimaginable heartbreak with the sudden and unexpected loss of my little brother, Colby. There are no words to describe the pain we are feeling—just utter devastation.

Colby was a gentle soul. He was kind and giving beyond expectations. In the last few years we’ve seen his nurturing spirit blossom, as he absolutely loved being the fun uncle to our sweet Jaxon and Josie. He brought joy into every room, and touched every soul he encountered. He deserves to have that same love and light reflected back to him now as we honor his life.

As we navigate this devastating time, I want my parents to have the space to grieve together without the added stress of financial worries. No parent should have to worry about bills, time off work, or funeral expenses while mourning the loss of their baby boy.

This fundraiser is to help ease the financial burden surrounding Colby’s arrangements and to support my parents as they take the time they need to heal, together. Any support—whether through a donation or by sharing this page—means more than words can express. We all need to take a page out of Colby’s book and spread love, kindness and acceptance during this time.

Thank you for helping us honor our precious Colby and for giving my parents the peace and time they need during this painful journey.

We plan on having his celebration of life sometime after the holidays so our family has time to plan.

We love you, Colby, and you’ll be missed, always.
