Colin Harris
Sadly Colin Harris, ex Dragonair engineer, died after a long struggle with cancer on 17th August. Although Colin was an engineer I am posting this on a Pilot's net as Colin was well known by all Dragonair pilots during the early days of the airline. In his prime Colin was not just good at his job, he was great company, totally disrespectful of authority and not above making jokes about pilots! However always done with good sense of humour.
The full details for his funeral are not finalised - what I have got is:
"Thursday 4th Sept 2014 – the Cremation
14:00 hrs Short service at the Buddhist hospital for Colin (details TBC with Rev Stephen Miller, the Senior Chaplin at the Mariners)
15:00 hrs Depart by car from the hospital to transport Colin’s body to the crematorium (about a 1 hour drive)
17:00 hrs The cremation in Wo Hop Shek crematorium
18:00 hrs Return to the Mariners (?)
Saturday 6th September 2014 – the Memorial Service
Possibly a memorial service at the Mariners (Service around 11 am with a gathering of Colin’s friends in the Wheelhouse Bar at 12 noon ?)"
The details could probably be confirmed by the Mariners for those interested in attending.
