Behind every name is a life, and behind every life are the people who loved it.
Grief is love with nowhere left to go.
Colton Taylor DeHass ("Colties") of Billings, Montana, passed away unexpectedly on April 26, 2026, at the age of 31.
Colton was a kind, respectful, and thoughtful young man who left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him. He was a dedicated worker and took pride in doing his job well as a forklift and yard worker. Known for his politeness and steady nature, Colton carried himself with quiet strength and integrity.
