Not sure what to say?

Jerry and I were barbeque buddies on many Baywood Hawaii trips. I will always remember his fun personality and his full of life spirit. I was shocked that he passed away at such an early age for someone so full of youthfulness. He was right, " life is short, do what you want now, there may not be a tomorrow"

My sympathy goes to all who shared in his life, be it family or close friends.

I was the fourth member 4 years ago of the Baywood dew sweepers. Sorry to hear of the loss. Jerry and I were never partners. We had to throw up balls to see if we had Herb or Elmo as a partner. He was the best. Will miss him.

MR. COLBY WAS A VERY GOOD FRIEND AND SUPPORTER OF THE "MADAKET"AND MARITIME MUSEUM.
HIS HELP AND ADVICE THRU THE YEARS HELPED TO KEEP HER HERE AND ALIVE.
