Condolence: I recently saw the Pres had passed . I obviously offer my prayers for him and his family. I had the great pleasure of working with him during our jobs in the North Country. He was able to give some sense to the insanity during the Olympics construction period. He was a great man and Became a good friend of my brother as well. It was a privilege to know him and his family shares that with us all , as I have read! Bless you all.

Condolence From: Ruth Colin
Condolence: Daughter of Robert & Shirley Colin who I met Preston through. He was always laughing and telling jokes & so full of life. I loved to share our fishing stories with him & respected him so much. There wasn't a person he would not lend a hand to if needed,& he loved the veterans !! He used to like to sell me the tickets with the tabs on them & I always told him I'd go broke buying them....but it was FUN. It would figure he left this world on a day that Americans mourn a heavy loss...losing him is a BIG loss too. They "broke the mold" when Pres was born ,his generation the best . Saddened to hear about his passing BUT I know he is with the Angels & God. Rest in peace . Love Ruth

Condolence: Barbara@family we send our deepest condolences on preston's passing- we are deeply saddened and were shocked- we always joked over the yrs preston would live to a 100 at least- we considered him one of saranac lake's icon and a hero! my family enjoyed his presence so much always making us laugh and my dad now 86 and mom 84 are deeply saddened by his passing and were hoping to see him again on a visit home-- we all were-- my younger sister will miss him too and ironically her first name is Ruth too like the little girl he rescued Ruth King--you could feel his presence when you entered a room-big as life--- we know hes making the angels laugh with GOD and he will always be looking down on all of us-may he rest in peace and god bless you all for giving us a wonderful human being-- Shirley@Bob Colin,Brenda Colin Rivers@George

Condolence: Dad - Where does a daughter even begin when trying to write a message to her Father who is now in the arms of God? I can not find the words to express just how much I love & miss you. You have always been my hero, my teacher, my life guide, and the best man one could ever be blessed to be able to call Dad! I pray that you know just how much we all appreciate all that you did for us, gave unselfishly for us, and loved us all so unconditionally...we are eternally grateful for all you did for your family. I could tell you not to worry about Mom, but I know you will always worry about her...but please know that although we could never take your place in her life, but we will do whatever it takes to continue to keep her safe and loved the way that you taught us to. Too many people throw the "soul mate" title around when talking about their spouse, but you and Mom are the true definition of soul mates. I am forever blessed to have been able to see such a true love story between the two people I am so honored to call Mom & Dad! Thank you so much for everything you did for Mom & your family! You are already missed so terribly, but we are thankful to have a lifetime of memories and the love in our hearts for you, to carry us through the tough days ahead without you here on earth with us. I love you so very much, Dad! xoxo-Trista

Condolence: Barb, Thalene, & Family,
Our sympathy & prayers to you & your family. We are unable to attend services as Phil just had major surgery. My sister flew up here last week & brought a copy of the Orlando paper with Pres's rescue story in it if you'd like to have it. Our thoughts & prayers are with you.
