Dear Faye and Family:

Please accept my deepest condolences. Although I never met Colin, I have enjoyed learning of the very remarkable man he was through Faye. You must all miss him terribly.

Sincerely,

Joan Hillson

My condolences to all that new Colin. I was greatly saddened to hear of his passing. Colin was a core member of our NOVA/Husky noon hour and weekend running group in Calgary that enjoyed the relief from work, social and personal challenges; by decompressing with each other while sharing the companionship of our runs. I blamed Colin for me believing I could run a marathon, since he ran them while dealing with his MS and I had no excuses. Little did I know that his inspiration would lead me to four marathons, the last at Boston in 2000. I had strong respect for Colin as a true friend and personal development mentor, while he offered an open-minded view of most issues. Colin made everyone that knew him better people.

Faye and family,

I found out about Colin's passing in a roundabout way while I was out of the country. Though we hadn't seen each other for many years, I still have fond memories of working with Colin during early days at UFA in Calgary. My deepest condolences.

My deepest condolences on Colin's passing. I met Colin while managing Nova's firewall. I interacted with Colin (and his associate, Merv Miles) almost constantly. Colin was a true gentleman and a pleasure to know and work with. He was kind, considerate and will live on in the memory of those who knew him. I take hope in the message of this Christmas season that Colin is well and meeting friends and family that have passed on. Families are forever.

Faye, and family,

My condolences on the loss of your husband and father.

Janis Ogilvie

My condolences to Colin's family and siblings.

Colin was a classmate in Estevan, in “our younger days”.

Arlette (Butler) Spencer

Our running gang have so many great memories of running with Colin on our NOVA noon hours. He was a great man, caring about his family and the those that he came in contact with. My condolences.
