Collacutt Dies Atfer a long illness (over ten years) "Bob" Collacutt passed away suddenly at his home in Port Perry. The. disease that attacked him had gradually eaten up his vitality until finally the battle for life was ended. And it was a battle. No one ever fought so valiantly as did "Bob." He sought no sympathy, and whenever he could store up a little energy he had some new interest, something to do. But the struggle ended as such struggles must always end, and a brave spirit, passed from earth. "Bob' 'was thirty-three years old when he died. son of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Colla- cutt. In 1924 Bob married Mary Davies of Portland, Oregon. Twd& children were born_of this marriage--Betty and Sally. Both the children and his widow survive him, also his -parents and two brothers (Jack, of Portland, Oregon; and Glenn, of New Liskeard), also a sister Grace (Mrs. Steiner, of Whitby.)
