Colin BERRY Obituary

Our condolences to the Berry Family. Colin attended many club nights at the Merrilands Country & Variety Club and danced the night away. The little smile that would follow when he was asked, how are you Colin, his reply was always, Naughty but Nice. RIP Colin. Lynn Crawford - MCVC Vise President

To all of the Berry family. Members of the Taranaki Area NZMCA wish to convey their sincere condolences to you on the passing of Colin. Colin was a valued member of our club. We all enjoyed seeing him arrive at rallies in his immaculately presented motorhome and have missed his presence since his health issues have prevented him from joining us.

Sorry to read of Colin's passing ,Always had time for a chat Worked on one of his Lincoln Zephyrs RIP Colin

To Colin`s Family Our sorrow for your losing of Colin. First met Colin through the motorhome group. Met up at many rallies 20years ago with Viola and Colin. Always friendly and helpful. When I was a custodian at Pop stop Colin was always available at working bees to chip at weeds etc.
An interesting guy with plenty of stories to tell.
Rest in Peace Colin. You won`t be forgotten.
Brian and Myra.

So sorry to read of "Whiskers" passing - a great friend of the family and work mate of Dad's (Ces Stevenson). Many fond memorioes of a real character. RIP Colin and much love to you all

Colin, A true gentleman. I only knew you briefly, but you made a lasting impression on me with your ability to live life to the fullest. Condolences to the strong neighbourhood support you had, and to your family. Back in the arms of your beloved.

colin was a great work mate working on the wharf as number 1 as he was known .a great friend of many years and chatting at New Plymouth club .sadly missed .peter farquhar

Colin , when ever you see me you would talk to me and we had some good chats about your cars and motor bikes and later your camper van . I will always remember those times. We first met when I was 7 - 8 years old through my uncle Colin Parker . RIP Colin .

It was with much sadness that I read of Colin´s passing. Colin was one of our 300 plus waterside workers (cargo-oligist) when I was associated with him. He was a larger than life character, highly thought of by workmates and waterfront employers alike. Although his Bureau number was 14, he was affectionately known as "Number One" which aptly described has standing amongst those he worked with.
R.I.P. Colin

RIP Colin, you deserve it after the battle you fought over the last few months with your determination, optimism and stubbornness never fading. Just over a week ago, you made me promise that I would take you for a walk every day as you needed to get your fitness and energy levels up to earn the points you needed for them to allow you to go back to your home where you wanted to be.
Last Monday on what turned out to be our last walk, with that determination we made it to the front door, and we sat on the chairs out in the sun, you said how great it felt to be out in the fresh air and feel the sun on your face and legs. I think you were also thinking the sun might charge your batteries. Colin I'm afraid your batteries were too old and buggered and wouldn't recharge. RIP

Condolences to Colin's family. Colin always knew when the kettle was on at Rimu Street when collecting his soak hole lids from the concrete factory, and always enjoyed a yarn and we his companionship.

Had some great times at Onearo Beach. Colin and Viola were our neighbours over the Summer Holidays with our children there for many years. Margaret and Bill Taunt

Colin you were one of a kind. You loved you GoldWing. So now you can enjoy riding with Viola again. Ride safe RIP

My special memory of Colin is when he took Michelle (my best friend since 5yrs old), Morgan and myself to Onaero Beach one weekend when we were young children. Sitting in the back seat of his Chev Impala even with three of us was like sitting on a gigantic lounge suite. We had a wonderful day out that day. Condolences to Lorelei, Michelle and Morgan. Much love from Trish and Dave King.
