Kenneth David Collins
It is with a sad heart that I have to report the passing of my
Husband Kenneth David Collins who died on 21-09-2005
after a long fight against Cancer.
Ken sailed on 5 ships from January 1951 to March 1956, when he met me a week after signing off.
Over the 49 years we were together we often recounted his happy days in the Merchant Navy.
His first ship was the Dominion Monarch and his last ship the Queensbury.
Now Ken has Crossed The Bar and is sailing a new ship in the sky.
Ken left a fine family behind who love him dearly, Five Grandchildren and our Son and Daughter.
God Bless my Darling and all those other shipmates sailing with you.
All My Love. Jean.xx
