I just wanted to say that you guys raised a great son. He helped many people and he hated seeing people sad and so when they were down in the dumps he would try to make them smile. He went to my High School prom at Bellevue last year and i remember he was trying to take a like 15 person selfie and he was bound and determined to try and get it until he succeeded. I wish all the best for your family and his closet friends, I know that Cole is now watching over you guys and got brought him home because heaven was needed a hero like him!!! I will pray that you guys make it through this troubling time! Thank you again for letting Cole explore the world because I know he touched a lot of people's hearts!!1

So Sorry for your loss. Words cannot express how sad this news is. Cole was a great man. He was always there for Dalton always helping him in grade school and outside of school. Cole has a special place in heaven for all he did in life. Many people will miss him. My heart breaks for you all. : (

Our deepest sympathy to your family. He was a very special young man. I was Cole's Confirmation group leader last year and he was always so willing to lend a hand when he had time . One night he and I spoke about all the things he was doing and I was so proud of him! One weekend he offered to help at a youth basketball tournament and was so pleasant and willing to do anything. He was a one of a kind and will always be remembered.

I was such good friends with Cole when I was in karate. He was my favorite person, and I always looked forward to seeing him. I just cannot believe he's actually gone. To Cole's family, you are all in my prayers. As hard as it is for me to deal with his death, I know it is even harder for you. Rest in peace, Cole. We love and miss you so much already!
