As I reflect now on my life, and the life of my son Colin, I’ve come to realize and now see that Colin was brought to us to learn and show us (me) truth in love. Colin was on a journey in this life for his spirit to evolve in enli Read Obituary
We will always remember the special friendship Kadin and Colin shared growing up at Countryside Montessori School and beyond. The many memories of the kids all hanging out together for sleepovers, birthday parties, and special milestones. Our heart goes out to Rob, Celine, and Abby. You are in our thoughts and prayers and our deepest condolences to you. ~ The Hagood’s (Ken, Tysha, Kadin, and Camille)
Colin’s infectious smile will never be forgotten. I loved the friendship and love that he and my daughter (Alexa aka Lennox) shared. I remember during their fourth grade graduation ceremony the students had to tell of a time that was amazing to them. Colin’s entire memory(s) consisted of anything that had to do with Alexa…lol. Her dad was not too happy about that lol. There was another time when she told Colin that she would not be returning to Countryside and he cried. I thought that was the sweetest thing. I truly believe that it was love at first sight for Colin when it came to Alexa. No matter what happened in their life or how much time went by he could always call Alexa and he knew that she would answer. That’s just how much they loved one another and how strong their bond and friendship was. Colin knew he could pick the phone up and call me. He did. Many times and I made sure to answer. I would talk to him and offer guidance and support. I told him often that his current circumstances did not define the outcome of his life. That with putting God first, determination, hard work and surrounding himself with positivity he could accomplish all things he set out to do and he didn’t have to go at it alone. He had us for support. I truly hope he knows what he meant to us and that he was our family. He called me mama and I’m honored that he thought of me in that way. We loved him and his absence in our lives is being felt tremendously. There is a huge void without him and he is missed dearly. The loss of Colin has devastated us and left our hearts broken.
