It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Colton Quast-Oliphant on Wednesday, February 19th, 2020 at the age of 25 years. Colton leaves to cherish his memory: his fiancée, Taylor Churla; his mother and step-father, Marlyn (Sheldon) Frank; his father and step-mother, Cory (Karla) Oliphant; his sisters, Kaylee Thera and Kristy Dubbeldam (Jeff); Taylor’s parents, Rus (Cheryle) Churla; and Taylor’s brother, Gage Churla; his grandparents, Gladys Quast, Madeline Oliphant, Paul & Dale McLeod and Egon Frank (Pamela Saville); as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, and friends. Colton was predeceased by grandfathers, Tom Quast and Dale Oliphant. Colton was born on February 25th, 1994 in Medicine Hat, where he was raised and received his education. While attending Medicine Hat High School, Colton was chosen to be part of the Senior Bowl, South Football Team, a high light of his senior year. He met the love of his life Taylor seven years ago, and in 2015 they moved to Edmonton, where Colton pursued his career as an electrician. Colton and Taylor were to be married this summer on July 25th. Taylor will forever be grateful to have been loved by someone as amazing as Colton, as he always made sure Taylor knew how much he loved and cared for her. Colton enjoyed working out, as his running shoe collection will attest too. He also liked snowboarding, going on road trips and spending time with family and friends. Besides watching Netflix, he never missed watching football on Sunday, especially the Seattle Sea Hawks. Colton will be remembered for his outgoing nature, positive attitude, sense of humour, and his ability to strike up a conversation with anyone, and above all else his loyalty to this family and friends. A Come and Go Celebration of Colton’s life will be held on Saturday, March 7th, 2020 at DESERT BLUME CLUBHOUSE, 107 Clubhouse Drive, Medicine Hat, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. Those wishing to remember Colton may do so through the Go Fund Me Page: https://www.gofundme.com/f/pray-for-colton.
