Colin loved to fly. He was a private Pilot, his dream was to own his own plane. Colin was an accomplished musician. He played both the piano and euphonium. He was active in several local bands. Colin willingly shared his vast knowledge. The last several years he actively volunteered with the IT department at Lollypop Farm. In addition Colin was a published author. His work appeared in publications such as Austism Parenting magazine, Lifehack.org and Western NY Physician. He also was active with blogging. Colin loved to cook as much as he loved to eat!
