Lynne, Kids and Grandies, Dave and Rog, Im so sorry to hear of Colins death. What a terribly tough time.... no doubt also filled with immense compassion and love too.
Colin, your Dad and Grandad, is a Cheviot identity.... so many of us went through primary school with him, knew the whole family, Jan and Bob, farmed as the family and Collie did, a huge heartbreaking loss to you all... and a loss to those who knew him and as a Cheviot identity.
Robyn Davies.

Our condolences to Lynne, Mike, Erin, Laura and families. We are thinking of you at this very difficult time for all of you. I have so many great memories of the fun that we had as cousins at the family farm at Spotswood. I was proud of the Colin's sporting achievements in tennis, rugby and gold. Along with you Lynne, you raised a wonderful family and this now is a big part of the legacy that Colin leaves. I will be in Auckland on Thursday so I am sorry I won't be able to attend the farewell for Colin. Lots of love to you all.
