Colten Ryan Hicks

Brother/Son/Friend/God father

What Colten was like

My brother had a huge heart and loved hard but his soul was too fragile for this world.He always wanted to keep others laughing and upbeat.Unfortunately he had something deep inside,he couldn't shake, only numb and in the end it took him from us.

Fondest memories of Colten

When I think of my brother I think of him as a kid, before life became overcomplicated. He was always the jokester and so happy. We (Me, him, and our brother Branden) didn't have a good childhood and were poor but we really made the best of it. I miss when he enjoyed life without substances and had peace.

How Colten will be missed

I will miss talking to him. I will miss his jokes and smart ass remarks. I will miss his ridiculously accurate football knowledge and passion when he talked about football and especially the Philadelphia Eagles. I will miss him playing his guitar and his passion for music. He was a good brother/son/friend/God father and overall person even throughout his addiction. He loved us and we loved him.

How Colten will be remembered

Remember Colten for the loving soul he was regardless of his internal struggles. I truly believe he is watching over us and bringing us comfort.
