Colton Glenn Gosnell

Colton Glenn Gosnell was born on July 25, 1994, in Greeneville, TN, to Lisa and Leonard (Glenn) Gosnell. A happy kid who spent hours outside digging holes all over our yard, building model cars, and drawing.

The highlight of his life was getting to be a father. He loved spending time with his 4 and 5 year old sons, riding motorcycles and playing video games, and with Estasha, the love of his life. He was so proud of the little family they created together.

On Monday, January 12, 2026, Colton Gosnell passed away at his home in Fitchburg, Wisconsin, at the age of 31.

Colton had the biggest heart and never met a stranger. He is, and will forever be, loved and missed by so many. 

He is survived by his significant other: Estasha Ledford and his children: Sleven and Alishzade Gosnell, of Fitchburg, WI; parents: Lisa and Leonard (Glenn) Gosnell; sister and brother-in-law: Amber Gosnell and Randy Duncan; sister: Autumn Gosnell; brother and sister-in-law: Holdon and Cheyenne Gosnell; nephews: Teegan, Zeppelin, and Salem Duncan, and Asher Gosnell; grandfather: David Smelcer, all of Greeneville, TN.

He was preceded in death by, his Aunt: Angela (Dawn) Smelcer, of Greeneville, who he had wrapped around his little finger; grandparents: His Nena, Patricia (Pat) Smelcer, of Greeneville, and Leonard Gosnell, of Marshall, NC.

The family wants to thank everybody for their kind words during this time and for the food brought over. It is appreciated more than you could know. We also want to thank everybody who donated to help bring Colton back home. We will be forever grateful to all of you.
