Colin Demge Obituary

Demge, Colin Michael June 23, 1983 - November 12, 2016 In a world where everything is so vanilla and can be so homogenized, it's rare that you meet true eccentrics and artists like Colin. Husband and life partner to Liz, son to Michelle and Gary, loving brother and uncle. Father to Fritz, NiteNite, and Chairman Meow (Kitty). Brilliant and devoted filmmaker, musician, and community advocate. The world has lost a beacon of light and he will be dearly missed. Celebration of Life for Colin Sunday November 20 from 1:00PM until time of Sharing Memories at 3:00PM at the FUNERAL HOME. In lieu of flowers, memorials to the family appreciated.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

When some men die it is as if you had lost your pen-knife, and were subject to perpetual inconvenience until you could get another. Other men's going is like the vanishing of a great mountain from the landscape, and the outlook of life is changed forever. ~Phillips Brooks
