I was privileged to be taught English by Colin at Otago. He was a warm and generous teacher. Later in life I came to appreciate his beautiful hymns and they have meant a great deal to me over the years. Thank you for the music Colin. Rest in peace. Tilly Flood

His generosity in permitting me to give copies of his hymns to my choirs in India at no cost continues to be appreciated by me and by my former choir members. We thoroughly enjoy his wit, sound theology, and beautiful music and words.
