To Jean and family. I met Colin at Teachers College in 1963 -64. I was from the country and as a city boy he took me under his wing and was a wonderful companion. We lost contact but his memory of a fun loving, loyal and genuine guy remains with me.

Dear Jean, Mark, Jayne and family,
so saddened to hear about Colin.
Have many great memories of Colin, teaching us about cricket, always being upbeat and his wicked sense of humour. Definitely one of the greats.
Thinking of you all xo

So sorry about Colin, I am pleased that I got the opportunity to come and see Colin before Christmas still laughing and joking. I will always have lovely thoughts of Colin and remember all the memories shared ie hospital visits with work, the walk / hobble home up the hill the day of the earthquake and all the funny jokes he would send around the office even after he retired. Sadly missed a true gentle man. Jean my thoughts are with you and your family. Carolyn Alderdice (Spicers)
