Sincere condolences to the family. Mr. Collier was my neighbour when I lived on 23rd street in the late 90s. He was so very kind and cheerful. My fondest memories are coming home from work to his greeting and discussing the news of the day. Their dog Nelly was quite a character and I adored her too. I used to help him pick the apples off the tree. He had a funny telescoping apple picker and we always had such a good laugh trying to use it. I remember resorting to a baseball mitt to catch falling apples as he batted them with the apple picker. Mr Collier was such a gem. He will me missed.
Sincerely, Cathie Crossin
