As expected, there is a common theme with all the comments about Ken Colvin. He was the Godliest man I know, he was a second father to me, he was always there for me, he helped me through some of my darkest days, he was full of God's love and shared that with me, he was my guiding light, etc. We all strive and hope to leave such a legacy but few will. Ken Colvin and wife Nancy are a rare breed on this earth. For those of us who were fortunate enough to know them and get close to them, we have been blessed!
Saturday will be a celebration if there ever was one. My Grandparents, Wayne and Helen Wills, were cut from the same fabric as Ken and Nancy and what a celebration it was for them. I would love to be there to hear all the stories that will be shared and those attending should be prepared for a long celebration. No words are adequate to capture Ken's life or love, but we will all give it our best shot.
My wife Tina and I were one of many couples that were privileged to call Ken and Nancy, Mom & Dad Colvin. I think that speaks volumes about their guiding and unconditional love, just like our biological parents. It is so easy to love this couple, this family. Thank you Dad Colvin for loving me, for allowing me to call you Dad, just like we call our heavenly Father.
You will be missed but your legacy and memories will live forever! Thank you for giving to the Lord! Thank you for giving so much of yourself to all of us! I love you!
