Given the option, Colin would wear shorts and a screen printed T-shirt (preferably green) any day of the week.Do not bring whys – there are no answers.Do not seek blame – there is nothing and no one to attach it to.Do not have regrets – Colin would never want anyone to feel bad.Tears and sorrow are welcome; but so are laughter, jokes, joy, and especially group hugs.
