Kevin Kempf, we would like to thank you once again for loving our Grandsons Collin and Cody,and being a proud and loving POP'S to them! These boys respect and love you! Your love, support and all the quality time you spent with the boys, is priceless! You gave Collin an opportunity to work and learn from you. As a Graphic Designer, you taught Collin a great trade! Collin was so excited to show us his car ,that he helped to wrap it! What a great job, and loved the color. Also, Kevin, thank you for all of your long hours of work on the CD's of pictures of Collin and his families! Also Codeman needs you👍🏻 God bless you always for all the great things you do for others🙏🏻

My precious Collin, just like my son😘I always enjoyed when you and my Codeman spent many days and nights, sometimes a couple of weeks with us.😄Collin, all those family get togethers we had spent together the last few months were so enjoyable, we shared some great memories, so thankful😘You were loved by so many of your family and friends❤Sweetheart, if only you talked to someone about what was bothering you and that you felt like a burden to your family, there must have been someone you could have confided in. I knew nothing and probably never will of how you were mentally tormented. It seems to me that you just could not go on, so sad, my sweetie😘You had a great future ahead of you😘We were so proud of you and I thank God for loaning you to us for 17 years✝You were a wonderful blessing and a loving, caring grandson❤

Your cousins are devastated and so heart broken as your uncle and myself! Enjoy Heaven with your dad and our family that has left us. Yellow butterflies will be my memory of you along with your handsome pictures. Until we meet again my sweet nephew. I just want to hug you one more time!

We are so sad and heartbroken with what happened, last time you and I talked you made me so proud, graduating a year early, starting college, I looked forward to watch you walk across that stage, you looked excited and happy telling me about your plans, now all I have is memories of what could of been. You rest now, I love you.

Thank you very much my precious friends, love you all so much, your prayers are so welcome, need them so very much.

Our Collin was like another son to us, we loved him so very much❤We will always miss him, he was such a joy and loved by so many,full of life, just like his Dad✝This is a living hell, for our Archuleta families knowing that our Collin felt like he had no choice but to end his young, precious life😭Will we ever know the real truth?

Life is so short....Please if there is anything I can do please call even if you need a shoulder to cry on...

Collin, we had many conversations this year. I will miss our opportunity to have lunch and spend time this summer as we had planned. We also had many laughs together as I tried to tease you as often as possible. I will always remember you as "Enchilada" and The times I looked in your direction making sure you were saying all the pledges in class. Lol
I promise I will keep your family in my prayers. I promise I will never forget you, and I promise That you will be in my heart for the remainder of the school year and beyond. I will miss you dearly, Collin.

Such a handsome young man with an amazing smile! Collin lives on in the hearts of those he touched...for nothing loved is ever lost and he is loved so much.
Dear God, the "Why" will never be answered, so I pray to keep Collin's family and friends close, they need each other more than ever before. Collin, may you now rest in Peace.

Collin was a wonderful part of our CCCS family. He was always joyful around our halls and was well-loved by his peers and our teachers. We were so blessed to know him. We thank God for his life. Your family will continue to be prayed for by students and faculty at our school.
