Marion, Ian, and Family, I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Chief Collins. I had the honour of working for him as a new employee of the London Police Service while he was Chief. He was a true gentleman with great wisdom and a sense of humour. I know he will be missed by many. May the Lord help you through this difficult time. Sincerely, Joan Atchison

I had the pleasure of working with Chief Collins while I held the role of Chief Administrative Officer for the City. He was a man of integrity, knowledge, and dedication. He gave so much to the City and the Police Services at a time that was very difficult for all involved. I treasure the memory of working with him. My thoughts are with his family at this time and my thanks to them for having shared such a wonderful person with us. Linda

I had the good fortune to know Mr. Collins growing up thanks to the start of my lifelong friendship with his son, Ian. To say that Mr. Collins was a positive influence in my life would be a wild understatement. I am heartbroken for Ian and Mrs. Collins and can only thank them both for being so warm and welcoming to me throughout the years and sharing Mr. Collins with me, however briefly. My sincere condolences to Ian and Mrs. Collins, their family, and anyone who knew and loved Mr. Collins.

Marion, Ian and family, Our thoughts are with you today as we all mourn the loss of Chief Collins. His wry smile and quiet zingers always made for collaborative and entertaining meetings. Every winter he would call the office and strongly suggest we 'either get in the water or get out your chequebook' for the Boys and Girls club swimathon so it is with fond memory that we make a donation in his honour.
