Condolences to everyone, I still remember Paddy & Pam opening their doors to have a drink with Ray and I only a few months ago.
One heck of character that will be greatly missed.

Dear Pam and family,

We were deeply saddened to hear of Colin´s passing. He was such an active and supportive member of both the Glenavy and Glenavy School communities. His contributions and kindness touched so many, and he will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Please know that our thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Wishing you strength and comfort in the days ahead.
