Obituary
Colin R. Dodd
1945-2021
The Villages, FL
Colin was born in Stanmore, England at the end of WWII. As a young man in search of better opportunities, he emigrated to the United States and settled in Rochester, NY. In 1970, he married Janet M. De Rycke and raised two children with her while navigating a thirty-five year engineering career with Xerox Corp.
Colin was a social, fun, loving man with a penchant for motorcycle riding, the Buffalo Bills, and classic
rock-and-roll, especially The Who! He had many friends through work, bowling, softball, and golf
leagues. He was a great husband, father, brother, and friend as well as a generous and kind man who
was always willing to lend a hand.
Colin is survived by his Wife, Janet, Daughter, Jennifer, Son, Colin Trevor, two precious Grandsons,
Carson and Logan Dodd, sister, Kay Garrison, as well as several nieces and nephews.
There will be no funeral service. A celebration of life event will be scheduled at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Colin’s name to your favorite, local, animal shelter or Compassionate Care Hospice of Lake Sumter Co., Inc. 304 LaGrande Blvd., The Villages, FL 32159

Yet another motorbike experience with Colin - 1992 Space Bike Trip.
A special friendship that started with a radio trivia question that Colin knew.
His hugs, smiles and laughter were wonderful and will be missed.
Alice & Bill
The memories that you have made together will always be cherished in your hearts forever.
