Colin Carwardine Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jan. 10 to Jan. 11, 2018.

Colin passed away suddenly Dec. 30, 2017 on his way to warmer weather. Dearly loved son of Muriel and the late Sandy Carwardine. Deeply loved and will be missed by his wife Glenda, their children Andy (Amanda), Rob (Lauren) and Pete (Robin) and his beloved grandchildren: Daelyn, Riley, Brody, Emma, Chloe and Kenzie. Beloved by and mourning his loss are his sisters Marilyn (Bob) and Bonnie (Lloyd), his brother Ron, sister-in-law Debbie (Rob), brothers-in-law Bruce (Egle) and Gordon (Laura). Predeceased by his brother-in-law Robert and his wife Bernice. He leaves behind many nieces, nephews, cousins, neighbours and friends who will miss his larger-than-life presence, his sense of humour and antics. The GTBA group has lost a founding member and will not be quite the same without him.

Cremation has taken place. An informal gathering to celebrate Colin's life is planned on Saturday, January 13, 2018 at the Royal Canadian Legion Richmond #625 Branch, 6430 Ottawa St., Richmond, K0A 2Z0, commencing at 2:30 p.m.
