Colton Wayne Blackshaw December 22, 2000 - June 27, 2014 Colton was born in Orlando, Florida to Amanda Blackshaw. He lived his entire life in Titusville and attended Coquina Elementary School. Colton was known for his fiery red hair and sweet smile. As a young boy, Colton enjoyed playing with small army men and trucks. He would spend hours building elaborate forts and creating war strategies. As Colton grew he loved playing video games, specifically X-Box with his big brother/cousin Tyler. He also loved playing X-box with his best buddies Tyler Sauvageau and Lakota Wager. They would spend hours playing video war games and just ""hanging-out"" like friends do. Colton loved being with friends and family as well as being with his special cat Kiki. He loved Kiki dearly; they two of them shared a special bond. One of Colton's favorite experiences was spending time in Ocala on Uncle Dwaine and Aunt Debbie's farm. In addition to being on the farm he loved boating, fishing and watching the manatees in the river. In 2009 Colton accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and was baptized with his mother. Colton enjoyed spending time at church and listening to gospel music. Even though Colton's life was very short on earth we know he is in heaven in the arms of God and his ""Nanny Judy"" whom he loved and cared for dearly. Colton has a large family and will be deeply missed by all. He is survived by his Mother Amanda Blackshaw of Titusville, Grandfather Walter Blackshaw of Titusville, Uncle Travis Blackshaw of Merritt Island, Great Grandmother Ola Mae Mitchell of Titusville and many aunts, uncles and cousins. He is preceded in death by Grandmother Judy Blackshaw, Great Grandfather Walter E. Blackshaw, Great Grandmother Betty Blackshaw and Great Grandfather Kenneth Mitchell.

No Sound Try HereWhen tomorrow starts without me,And I'm not there to see,If the sun should rise and find your eyesAll filled with tears for me;I wish so much you wouldn't cryThe way you did today,While thinking of the many things,We didn't get to say.I know how much you love me,As much as I love you,And each time that you think of me,I know you'll miss me too;But when tomorrow starts without me,Please try to understand,That an angel came and called my name,And took me by the hand,And said my place was ready,In heaven far above,And that I'd have to leave behindAll those I dearly love.But as I turned to walk away,A tear fell from my eyeFor all my life, I'd always thought,I didn't want to die.I had so much to live for,So much left yet to do,It almost seemed impossibleThat I was leaving you.I thought of all the yesterdays,The good ones and the bad,I thought of all the love we shared,And all the fun we had.If I could relive yesterday,Just even for a while,I'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile.But then I fully realized,That this could never be,For emptiness and memories,Would take the place of me.And when I thought of worldly things,I might miss come tomorrow,I thought of you, and when I did,My heart was filled with sorrow.But when I walked through Heavens Gates,I felt so much at home.When God looked down and smiled at me,From His great golden throne,He said, "This is eternity,And all I've promised you.Today your life on earth is past,But here life starts anew.I promise no tomorrow,But today will always last,And since each day's the same wayThere's no longing for the past.You have been so faithful,So trusting and so true.Though there were times you did some thingsYou knew you shouldn't do.But you have been forgivenAnd now at last you're free.So won't you come and take my handAnd share my life with me?"So when tomorrow starts without me,Don't think we're far apart,For every time you think of me,I'm right here, in your heart.LOVE , COLTON

My heart just breaks for your family and friends Colton . You have been such a SWEET Young Man , kind, funny , loyal to your friends and you will be greatly missed by all of us who's Hearts you touched in a Very special way ! I have only known your the past 2 years , through my Grandaughter Kayla Harrell . She was in your Class the past 2 years (4th and 5th Grade). Kayla always spoke fondly of you and I know you were one of her good friends . Thank you for being so kind to her Colton, as well as to myself EVERY time I spoke to you either at School, or when walking home after School . You have always been very respectful to me whenever I spoke with you and I want to Thank you for that Colton . I remember when you were having some problems with another student harassing you for several days , when you all would walk home from School , and that Kayla would rush up ahead, to our home and ask me to come and make the boy leave you alone and stop trying to start fights with you for no reason, so I would come out and make sure nothing happened , and that the boy didn't keep following you and your Tyler and the rest of your friends as you kept walking (past where the other boy turned in direction he lived). Kayla would Not have felt so "protective" of you, or worry that someone was annoying, or egging you on , for no reason... if you didn't touch a Special place in her heart, with that Very Gentle Spirit you have Colton ! There was a "LIGHT" within your Soul, that Shined So Bright, it was easy for anyone that ever knew you, to care about you , and now that God has called you Home so early in your life, the Hearts you touched while still here, will Never forget you , and will miss you dearly !You are a Beautiful Soul Colton and I will miss you too. It is so Very hard to Understand WHY God chose to call you Home, when you had your whole life ahead of you, and even MORE Difficult to ever accept this,but we need to remember that although our hearts are broken and we may even feel angry with God for taking our loved ones away , we ALSO should Thank God for BLESSING us by bringing you into our lives no matter how short the time was ! Colton, it is said that GOD has a "Purpose" for Each one of us . I believe Your "Purpose" has been fulfilled by all the Special Gifts you have given to us all ,by shining YOUR LIGHT ....GOD'S LIGHT into the hearts of us all! You taught us things God wanted us to learn and remember !I will keep you , your family and friends in my Prayers Colton and I look forward to seeing your smile again someday.... when we meet again in god's Kingdom !Beth Straight
