Colin Loderhose funeral & burial expenses

My name is Steve Kaay, and I am Michelle Loderhose Woodward's cousin. We are all stunned at the senseless loss of this remarkable 25-year-old young man. On behalf of our extended family, I am asking you for your financial help for Michelle and Chris (Colin's parents), as the lion’s share of the burden of paying for Colin's funeral, burial and hospital bills (life saving efforts) will be on them. I am asking friends, family and those of you in the extended community to pitch in with whatever amount you can and help them shoulder this substantial expense; together, we can make this immense burden a little lighter. Please do what you can. Your donation is linked directly to Michelle Loderhose / Woodward's account, funds go directly to her from GOFUNDME. 

 

Colin was a bright, healthy, focused, self-guided and passionate young man. He was an accomplished MMA fighter, an terrific drummer, guitarist, vocalist and a gifted carpenter. He bought his first house at the age of 23 and did most of the remodeling himself.  He loved his family, his brother, his sister and his Mom. He was crazy about being an uncle to his nephews and niece. 

 

Colin was opening the gun store where he was employed on Wednesday morning, 7/6/22, when two men attempting to rob the store, shot and killed Colin Loderhose and then fled. Authorities have two men in custody thanks to witnesses who got involved and saw the men fleeing the scene.  The men were apprehended within the hour.
