Thinking of Cathy and the whole family at this difficult time. Colin was a lovely man and we enjoyed a lot of laughs during our visits. I will miss seeing that great smile and will be keeping you all in my prayers.
Phil, Lori, Madison and Keenan- Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May your hearts and minds be filled with fond memories that last a lifetime!
I am so very sorry to hear of Colin's passing. Colin was a dear friend and co-worker of my father's (Ed Catlin - passed January 2010). I know the heartbreak you are feeling and my thoughts and prayers are with you all at this very difficult time.

Very sorry to hear of Colin's passing. He was a wonderful man to have known. When I joined Oxford Dodge, Colin went out of his way to make me comfortable, even arranging for me to play with him in a company golf day shortly after arriving. It meant a great deal to me at the time and I will always remember that. Colin was a pleasure to work with as he always had an upbeat, positive attitude, and a great sense of humour.
