Colin lived and worked most of his life in Kingston, Jamaica. He was an accountant with Seprod Ltd. After his retirement, he served his community as an independent taxi driver. Colin was proud to have immigrated to Winnipeg, Canada to be closer to family. He continued working as a driver with Belle Express Transit where he enjoyed serving his clients. He had a strong work ethic and was a dedicated worker. Even after being diagnosed with cancer, he never missed work.
Colin loved to read and would meditate with his Bible every morning before starting his day. He enjoyed watching nature and history shows. He loved to laugh and enjoyed a passionate and engaging political conversation. Whether going out or staying in, he was always impeccably dressed. Although his goal was to become a Canadian Citizen, Colin stayed connected to family and friends in Jamaica and the US. He will be missed.

Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

My first real memory was as a child of about age 4 and being tossed to and fro between my brothers Paul and Colin. Colin was always warm and kind and loving. Even while leaving home and starting his own family from a young age, he would always invite his sisters to his home and we would always feel welcomed. In my teen years when I was attending high school near his place of employment, I would sometimes visit him with my friends and "tax" him for lunch money and he never frowned or made me feel like a "pesty little sister". Much later, when adulthood presented its challenge and I faced some dark times, he became my friend and we worked out a plan to help each other and would travel together in the mornings to work sharing jokes, politics and bonding more than ever before until he migrated. Colin - the magnanimous (his words) I miss you so much and you will forever have a place in my heart. - Posted by: Caroline Ston (Sister) on: Sep 10, 2019
