A very special cousin to our family (Hunter) ... genuine, caring special man ... will be missed greatly ... special memories treasured

Sorry to hear of Mr Dobbie's passing, condolences to family, both he and Mrs Dobbie were so lovely to myself and my collegues.

Our sympathy to Colin´s family at this sad time. He and Sylvia were our very good neighbours when we lived in Nelson St. A true gentleman.

Condolences to Colin's family. He was a wonderful gentleman and it was a pleasure to work with him at Kew Hospital many years ago. May he rest in peace.

Sorry to hear of Colin's passing, such a true gentleman, and thankyou Sir for your years of advice and company around the greens, remembered always and I'm sure your at peace with your dearly loved Sylvie now, bless you and rest easy

Colin was our mother's (Hazel Ellis) corner shop grocer for many years. We remember with fondness Colin's unfailing politeness, consideration and kindness to our Mum. Our sympathy to extended family and friends.

Colin was a wonderful and caring gentleman, highly regarded by his friends and co-workers. His bright smile remained as we talked of his beautiful Sylvie just this week. Arohanui, go well Colin.

I am very sad to read of Colins passing.A true gentleman, very helpful, and most of all very caring. He loved a joke and always had a kind word to say to all.I enjoyed knowing Colin at work at Kew Hospital all those years ago and catching up with him after we both had retired. Our sympathy to Colins family as we all knew him and thought he was great. Shona Fordyce and Family.

A memory on behalf of the Whelan Family.
Colin was a close friend of my father the late Harold Whelan. We visited Colin's grocery store when I was very young, a walk down from Dipton Street. Colin always gave us a sweet before a walk home. Last spoke to Colin at my fathers funeral some 14 years ago.
Colin was always a true gentleman and always thought of others first.
He will be sadly missed.

Colin was my Mother's cousin and I'm writing this message in behalf of that side of the family. Colin was always the perfect gentleman, caring and always interested in family matters. An excellent sportsman in cricket, lawn bowls and golf. A perfectionist in what ever he did. Our sincere condolences to his family to a man that lived a good life

A wonderful mentor to me in my cricketing days at the Appleby Cricket Club. Taught me to drive his Humber 80 when repairing the cricket wicket at Appleby on a Sunday morning after play on the Saturday. I was his grocery boy at Dobbie's Grocery Store Elles Road. Sincere condolences to Colin's family and friends.
