How can I get multiple bootstrap cols in 1 row without nesting?

I am trying to create this grid with bootstrap:

enter image description here

I can easily create the first row no problem using cols. It would be simple enough to create a second row, however, the entire grid has a drop shadow, so even when I create a second row and just bump it up, I cant create a drop shadow under the entire grid.

I have tried nesting other cols inside the row but it doesn't work well since the columns are not the same width above and below.

Here is what I have so far: https://jsfiddle.net/5nk28tm0/

Using

display: flex;
padding-top:120px
padding-bottom:100px;

to keep the columns all the same height. Just need to add another row without losing the drop shadow ability. Not sure what to try from here. Any suggestions?

It might be worth checking out CSS Grid for this layout.

The problem is because the columns each have a varying height, hence the elements are not in proper order. If you use the CSS below, you can restrict the minimum height and all the elements will align accordingly.

.row > div {
  min-height: 50px;
}

.home-testimonial {
  .row {
    display: -webkit-box;
    display: -webkit-flex;
    display: -ms-flexbox;
    display: flex;
    box-shadow: 15px 10px 50px #e3e3e3;
    align-content: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
  }
  .col-sm-2 {
    align-content: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
    padding-top: 120px;
    padding-bottom: 100px;
  }
  .col-sm-4 {
    padding-top: 50px;
    color: #333e48;
  }
  .testimonial-body {
    padding-left: 40px;
    padding-right: 40px;
  }
}

.row > div {
  min-height: 50px;
}
