Colin SUTHERLAND

1955 - 2022

COLIN McGILL SUTHERLAND July 8, 1955 - February 12, 2022 Colin died tragically while skiing in Utah. Predeceased by Hector and Nancy Sutherland, he is survived by his beloved children, Devon and Keith, their mother Vanessa, and his siblings Linda, Anne, Brian and Jane. Colin grew up in Montreal and attended Lower Canada College, where he forged lifelong friendships. He went on to pursue a business degree at Queens University and an MBA at the Wharton School of Business. A successful career in the building materials business took Colin and the family to Atlanta, Paris, Boston and eventually Collingwood. An accomplished cook and wine aficionado, Colin loved nothing more than bringing people together. Acquaintances soon became friends, and there was always room for another seat at the table. Colin will be fondly remembered as a skilled raconteur, who could make even the most mundane story entertaining. Although he suffered for decades from ankylosing spondylitis (spinal arthritis), Colin never complained. Instead, he continued to play golf and do what he loved most - ski - right to the end. A celebration of Colin's life will be held in Montreal on July 8th. Details to follow. RSVP: colinsudsmemorial@gmail.com.
