Bio: Colton Dale Pulsipher was born in St. George, Utah to Dale Lee and Lonia Louise Lee Pulsipher. On July 16, 2016 he married Ashlee Marie Svedin in the St. George LDS Temple.

Colton lived most of his life in Moapa, Nevada. Following high school, he served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in the Denver North Mission. He enjoyed a career with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, especially his work in traffic riding his patrol motorcycle. He planned to test to become a resident officer. While working he continued to improve as he earned his Associates Degree.

Colton was an active, outdoors person. He loved shooting guns, being with his family and playing video games. He secretly loved 'assisting' to help his sweetheart with her home projects. He will be remembered for his constant singing, sometimes it was annoying, but it will be a lasting memory that will always bring a smile. He loved to snuggle, his wife and three beautiful children will miss those quiet moments of bedtime stories and snuggles.
