I would like to send out my condolences to Colin's family. Colin and I were in the Radiology program at Grayson together. We actually sat right by eachother for the entire two years and became good friends. Colin is a sweet and funny guy that has a heart of gold. He was always ready to crack a joke just to put a smile on your face. He will definitely be missed by all of us. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers during this hard time.
