You will remember that, sadly last week Colin McCulloch passed away after fighting cancer for over a year (the full news here).
Colin McCulloch, was the sahper behing Lost Cause Boards and also shaped Aaron Hadlow's boards. He was really famous in the kiting world and yet a very friendly guy on the beach with everybody according to those who met him.
His wife Caroline now wants to raise money for the charity who helped Colin and his familly. Bellow is what she posted on the kiteboarder.co.uk forum.

Thank you to everyone who has posted on this forum. It was very touching and it has meant a great deal to read such wonderful posts. Colin fought this disease all the way though and his friends were so helpful in his battle. He died peacefully in his sleep at the Rowans Hospice. Both his Mum and I were there holding his hands.

Throughout his illness Colin wanted to do something in order to raise money for charity. In his memory I have created two web pages which you can log on to in order to donate if desired. The family would prefer this then funeral flowers. The sites are
www.justgiving.com/colin-mcculloch
and
www.justgiving.com/colin-mcculloch0
His lostcauseboards.com website will be kept alive. I am adding a section so that people can post their stories/ memories of Colin (not condolances please) so that I can create a memory book for the kids and the rest of the family. Please please please post unedited, true to life stories of all the good times. They really do help.

Thank you again
Caroline, Joshua and Mia x
