I have great memories from the years at Tiwai, working with Colin. He was a good man. Deepest sympathy to you, Margaret and your family.
Neville Wallace, CHRISTCHURCH
In my time at Tiwai i interacted with Colin on many work and project issues. Colin was always cooperative obliging and took the time to explain in terms i understood some of the complexities of systems we had to work with. Outside of work he had a god given skill he enhanced to converse in subjects more dear to me than him.
A top bloke indeed.
Margaret, family and friends, please accept our deepest sympathy from Ann & I at your sad loss of a loved one
RIP Colin.

The best Brother-in-Law you could wish for, still has not yet sunk in that he has passed away and will miss him when I Skype Margie, as I said will miss him so much, Margie and Colin have had a wonderful 58 years together and now Margie will have some wonderful memories of their travels in NZ and England, thinking of you all.
