  27. My Deepest sympathies go out to Colin’s family.
    I first met Colin at Yallourn Workshop (S.E.C.). Years later we were re-united at Loy Yang. What I admired the most in Col was him being a straight shooter and his loyalty toward family and friends. We just had a catch up on my recent visit which I will treasure. Our monthly phone calls will definitely be missed. RIP Colin.
