Colton Levi Jennings

Colton Levi Jennings
May 3, 2023

Colton Levi Jennings entered this world sleeping at 11:54 p.m. on Wednesday, May 3, 2023. He was 7 lbs. 5 oz. and 23” of pure perfection. He was surrounded by family and friends, covered with prayers, and cradled by Jesus.

Colton is the son of Ben and Kayla Jennings of Phil Campbell.

Visitiation was held May 9 from 2-4:00 p.m. at Spry Memorial Chapel in Russellville. The funeral followed at 4:00 p.m. in the chapel with Bro. John McCullar and Bro. Zach Smith officiating the service. The burial was at Blue Springs Cemetery. The pallbearers were Ben Jennings, Zach Smith, Jackson Hightower and Brent Whitten.

Colton leaves to cherish his memories his parents, Ben and Kayla; grandparents, Steven and Tina Smith, Phyllis Jack, Carl & Tonya Christopherson; great-grandparents, Sue & Bobby Smith, Margaret Jack, Pat Hovater, Jean Mathis; great-great-grandmother, Elsie Newell; and a host of aunts, uncles and cousins.

He is preceded in death by great-grandparents, Bill Hovater, Bob Mathis, Starland Newell, Elton Jack and James Bray.

The family would like to extend a special thanks to the nurses and staff of labor and delivery and postpartum wings at North Alabama Medical Center. We also want to thank Spry Memorial Chapel for the love and kindness shown to the family.
Our angel touched many lives in his short time. Our loss is heaven’s gain.
