The Colorado Cougars are the brain child of Pat Kelly who lives in Greeley and has a very successful Hypnotherapy practice in Loveland, CO.  In 2008 Kelly, a coach, broadcaster and sports writer, underwent open heart surgery, the second major procedure to his torso in as many years. (Gall bladder explosion) His family lost everything they owned, their house, their cars and his home improvement business. Friends in the industry of sport rallied both spiritually and financially as they literally came together and came to the rescue to help make the Cougars happen for Kelly and his family. The Cougars are his second chance in life and his chance to give back. Kelly is most proud of his now adult children Scott, and Ashley and his baby, Alicia who is 17 and a senior in High School.  Kelly also married WAY up... His  lovely wife of 20 plus years, Daisy Jane.
