Colten was born in Winnipeg, MB on August 4, 1990. He resided in Grassy Narrows with his older brother Leon and their late mother Marcia. Colten was a happy, kind and loving person. He always had a warm hug and a big smile for anyone he met along his path. He never missed a chance to say “I love you” to his family and friends. He liked entering contests and participating in community game days. He liked giving a helping hand in caring for his loop family pets and had a few of his own over the years. He enjoyed spending time with his friends playing video games, as well as cooking for his kookum and family.
