Colin John Mahon, age 40, of Newtown Square, PA, passed away on October 8, 2024. Born in Kingston, NY, he was the son of John and Elizabeth Mahon (nee Norberg).

Colin brought love and joy to everyone around him. He touched so many lives across the country from Rhinebeck, NY where he grew up, to Millbrook School, Villanova University, Brooklyn, NY, Red Hook Golf Club and Rolling Green Golf Club, and to his current community here in Pennsylvania. He was an avid golfer, coach to his children, and the most generous friend to everyone around him. 

Colin was the beloved husband of Samantha Mahon (nee Jung); loving father of Axel Albert Mahon, Otis Patrick Mahon, and Willa Rose Mahon; caring brother of Patrick Mahon and Jessica Dietrick, and loving brother-in-law and uncle. Colin is also survived by his parents, John and Elizabeth Mahon and his in-laws, Gary and Roberta Jung. Colin will be missed dearly by all those who were blessed to know and love him.
