Personal note from Colin’s Sister, Summer

Thank you so much to everyone visiting this page. We miss Colin tremendously and  invite you to  share your favorite memories and photos of him on this website.

We will be gathering at our childhood home in Allston to celebrate his life on his 50th birthday this year and invite you all to join us in the celebration.

We will have a moment during the service where you can offer a memory, poem, photo or letter to Colin. If you do not feel comfortable reading aloud, you don’t have to. Just write your memory on paper. We will be burning these writings  and scattering the ashes together with his.
