It is with great sadness the family of (Ted) Edward Allan Colbourne announce his passing at the age of 71 years, on Monday April 21, 2014, after a long courageous battle with cancer. He leaves to mourn: his wife and best friend of 15 years, Genny (Noftall); sons: Todd (Venessa), Brian (Jacqueline), Corey (Kelly); stepson, Kristofer (Tracy), stepdaughter, Kendra (Adrian); grandchildren: Nikko, Cameron, Dylan, Hudson, Madelyn, Alexa, Abbi, Jacob, Emily and Alex.

He was predeceased by his parents, Harold & Nellie Colbourne; mother-in-law, Yvonne Noftall. Ted was a die hard Blue Jays, Dodgers and Maple Leafs fan, true blue to the end. Ted loved baseball and he loved to play the game with his four brothers. He was also an avid bowler and will be missed by all his friends at the alleys. Last but not least, Ted loved to go fishing, especially with his buddy, John Hancock. Happy ­fishing, Ted; hope you catch the BIG one in heaven.
