The first thing in my head when i heard the news was his laughter and enormous smile. Col was the most kind, funny, generous and sharp witted person. We siblings were so lucky to have Col in our lives growing up.Then Gregorio got to know him as a very loving brother in law. He knew so much about so many things that they were never short of conversation topics. Likewise our family loved him as an uncle, who had a great sense of interest in their lives along with so much humour and wit.

So many memories and stories to share. Thank you Colm for your  compassionate presence, your kindness and your fantastic sense of humour enriching our lives. Moira and family xxxx
