In Memory Of

Colleen Ann Kittleson, 65, of Glasgow, Montana

June 6, 1957 – January 4, 2023

Colleen Ann (Fargo) Kittleson, age 65, of Glasgow Montana, passed away January 4, 2023 at St. Vincent’s Hospital in Billings, Montana.

Colleen was born June 6, 1957 in Glasgow, Montana, the daughter of John and Rhoda (Lentz) Fargo.  Colleen graduated high school in 1975. She married Rocky Kittleson on September 11, 1976 and they started their family shortly thereafter with Dusty and Travis and then after a ten year gap Myles and Katie came along to complete the family.

Colleen worked at Eugene’s Pizza all through high school.  In her adult life she spent some time working at Penny’s and Joe’s Meat Shop, but her true calling was being a Mother and a Grandmother.

Colleen was known for being a dedicated wife and mom. She was involved in 4-H often being a leader from the point of Dusty starting to Katie finishing many years later.  She followed her kids to all of their events, whether that was to all of the different sporting games and tournaments, chaperoning each and every school field trip or to the Metra for State Wrestling while having a two month old and a two year old on each hip.

The love she had for her family was multiplied when she started having grandchildren and she loved nothing more than having the opportunity to babysit and help raise the older two, Ty and Kohl; she looked forward to seeing Max when he came to visit from Minnesota and loved seeing Grace, John and Joseph for church every Sunday.

She enjoyed being a part of the many different clubs including: being an AAU Wrestling Club mom, a Gold’n Girl Investment Club lady, as well as being part of many Bible Study groups through the years.

Colleen is survived by her husband, Rocky; sons, Dusty Kittleson (Buffy), Travis (Marcie) Kittleson, Myles (Faith) Kittleson all of Glasgow, Montana; daughter, Katie (Cody) Esmay of Mound, Minnesota; Melissa Kittleson of Glasgow, Montana; grandchildren:  Ty Kittleson, Kohl Kittleson, Grace Kittleson, John Kittleson, Joseph Kittleson and Maximus Esmay; brothers, Doug (Jill) Fargo, Rod (Shannon) Fargo and Arnie (Britt) Fargo; numerous aunts, cousins, nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Rhoda Fargo; sister, Jacque Fargo; mother-in-law, Blanche Kittleson and father-in-law, Dorval Kittleson.

Family will receive friends from 4 to 6:00 p.m., Sunday, January 8, 2023 at Bell Mortuary.  Funeral services will be 11:00 a.m., Monday, January 9, 2023 at the Glasgow Evangelical Church with Pastor Tom Fauth officiating.  Burial will follow at Highland Cemetery followed by a luncheon at the Evangelical Church.  Condolences may be left for the family at bellmortuarymontana.com.

    I always enjoyed my time with Colleen. I think most of it was trying to figure out the television. My heart breaks for your loss. She had a big heart and I will miss our phone calls. I can see her up in heaven using her own two feet again, running and dancing.
    Sending prayers and love to the Kittleson Family.

    I remember a sweet conversation with Colleen about her hunt for a wedding dress so many years ago. She literally glowed, even though a bit frustrated about her search. Her eyes were so bright. It is how I will always remember her ~ the glowing bride.
    Sincere condolences to you Rocky & your entire family. God bless.

    Deepest sympathies Rocky and all of their family. She was always ready to give motherly advice and it was appreciated. She sang songs with me. She enjoyed her Bible study teaching ad she told me many stories. She was especially proud of the family and Rocky. She was always updating me on what was happening including a wedding, birth, graduation or if one of the grandkids made a mistake. She would laugh and say they would learn not to do it next time. What a giving and heartfelt person. I sm so glad I got to know her. Hugs and love to you all.

    Oh Colleen…The chosen photo is SO YOU! Good Job Family!
    I don’t want to believe she’s passed because I’m selfish and I want to keep her here on Earth. But She’s with Our Lord and Savior Now!! Nothing Can Compare!!!
    Dear Lord… if it is Your Will.
    PLEASE..Send me a Yellowtail Butterfly this Spring to show me that She’s Doing Great and Looking Forward to seeing the rest of us In Eternity.
    LOVE YOU ALL
