Hi Michelle. So sorry to hear of Colin's passing. I really enjoyed my visits to see both Colin & Shirley when she was still with us when I got back to Timaru. Colin was a great conversationalist and a very witty humorous man and I will always have great memories of him and Dad Bill and the banter that would go on between them over a couple of beers. My sincere condolences to you all at this sad time.

So generous, caring and genuinely interested in whatever you were up to - even if you were 7 years old trying to perfectly time the bread flip on the toaster. We shall miss you. Love to you, Michelle and all the family. xx

It is with regret that I am unable to attend Colin's funeral service due to out of town commitments. I have fond memories of Colin who I first met in 1968 and have been a friend since then which included many years in the Rotary Club of Timaru
My thoughts are with the family

Hi Michelle
So sad to read of Colin's passing. An amazing, lovely man - whom I know you will miss. We are in Rarotonga at present so I will be unable to attend the funeral. However, you will be in my thoughts over the weeks ahead as you adjust to a world without your dad. May the many happy memories you have bring you comfort in the days ahead.
