The only child of a single mother, Colter cherished the strong relationship he had with his mother, Rosey. After his mom was diagnosed with cancer, Colter dropped out of college and moved home to Hartford, South Dakota to care for her. Because Rosey didn’t have insurance at the time of her diagnosis, Colter would share his paychecks with her to help pay for the medical bills. At a time when he should have been focusing on his mother’s health, Colter also had to learn, much too young, the financial toll of cancer.
