Colin, you were a great man. One of life's colourful and fun blokes. I knew you from a little tacker who jumped the back fence to play with Grant. You treated me like part of the family. We shared many laughs, drinks and shots of plonk in the shed. You loved nothing more than your boys and welcomed anyone in. You were great company over the years and I enjoyed every chat we had. You will be missed but always in my memories. Our thoughts and condolences are with Grant, Jackie, Dean, Brett and extended family. Love Jason, Brooke, Jack Ava & Ruby Schram.
