With fair winds and calm seas behind him Colin made his final journey on November 23rd with his loved ones by his side.
Colin was a wonderful husband of 54 years, dad, grandad, father in law, but also a friend, mentor, teacher, engineer and boat builder who dedicated his life to maritime safety with both the lifeboat and coastguard.
May the pages of this book be filled with love, memories, photos and anecdotes as we reminisce of our time together and honor his passion, dedication and kindness.
Eternal Father, Lord of hosts,
Watch o’er the men who guard our coasts.
Protect them from the raging seas
And give them light and life and peace.
Grant them from thy great throne above
The shield and shelter of thy love.
