This is way late but have just found out- memories of Ian as an eight or nine year old mischievous imp bounding about during Thanksgiving and/or Christmas dinners when Bert/Marge would graciously open up their home to the "unaffiliated" great unwashed grad students and save them from searching for an open MacDonalds to get a holiday burger-

untimely loss of children- words do not suffice

Allison, Ian and family. So very sorry to hear of your loss. I still remember when you all lived up the block on Nebraska Street; just moved in; and Colin was the baby of the family. Was that so long ago? They were happy and carefree days. I hope the memories of those days and all the times you spent with Colin and his family will fill your hearts and bring you comfort at this time. I will keep you in my prayers. Peace be with you, now and always.

I went to high school with Colin and we hung out some at the many concerts that a college town holds with many friends. Reunited in El Dorado a little as hubby was their neighbor for years. You can't explain this guy and his family in a small paragraph. They showed love, happiness and fun even in times of struggle and loss. My heart is full of love and respect for you all.

I never had the opportunity to meet Colin face to face but we became friends and would often have long conversations via phone about airplanes, cars, family and shared a 1000 pictures. Often late into the evenings. I am truly saddened that I will never get the chance to meet this very genuine man who cared so much about his family and friends. He will be truly missed! My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I had the privilege of working along side Colin for 4 years at CNB&T. He was a very intelligent man with a quick wit and a laugh that you remembered. It brings a smile to my face just thinking about it.

With a heavy heart I want to express my deepest sympathy, thoughts and prayers...today and always!

Sorry to hear of this loss and I know that words cannot fill the void created. My memories of Colin are good ones as he was a man of integrity. In working with Colin I learned to appreciate his passion for what he pursued and for family. Colin will be missed! You are in my prayers!

"Living Hope!"
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, 7so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 8and though you have not seen Him, you love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, 9obtaining as the outcome of your faith the salvation of your souls. 1 Peter 1:3-9
