(Grandfather)
Colin was born in Prestwick, Scotland, the son of Robert Sim and Williamina Macrae. When he was 24 he emigrated to Canada to begin a new life. His wife Mary followed him a year later. Colin was a hardworking family man. He had his own cartage company that he built from the ground up. He also built his home from scratch with his own two hands, digging out the basement himself using a horse and cart to remove the soil. He worked at his business and lived in that home until the day his life on earth ended. A wonderful Granddad.

A Memorial
Sim - In loving memory of my dear husband, Colin, who passed away April 11, 1967.
Softly the leaves of memory fall,
Gently we gather, treasure them all,
Some may forget now that you're gone,
I will remember no matter how long.
- Sadly missed and lovingly remembered, wife Mary.
