Dear Caroline & family,
So sorry to hear of Colins passing. I will always remember him as being a completely fastidious, meticulously accurate worker
while handling the car sales paperwork at VTR Motors when I was the Accountant. A person who could be absolutely reliable and accurate in the work he did. He was a pleasure to work with and get to know as a friend. Kindest regards,
Ray James, Dunedin.
