Colin Coffin Memorial Gift - San Diego Blood Bank
On September 16th, the Coffin family faced the unimaginable loss of their beloved son, brother, and uncle. Colin, just 40 years old, passed away from complications related to an ulcer, leaving behind a void that words cannot fill.
During his time in the hospital, Colin received several blood transfusions - the most generous gift of life from local donors. These donations gave his family a few precious days with Colin that they will cherish forever.
To honor Colin’s beautiful spirit - his kindness, intellect, and unwavering loyalty, we invite you to give in whatever way feels right. A blood donation, a monetary contribution, or simply sharing your well wishes and memories with his family are all meaningful ways to carry forward his light.
I’d like to leave you with a quote from The Streets, one of Colin’s favorite musical groups. He shared these lyrics on his Facebook many years ago:
“I came to this world with nothing, and I’ll leave with nothing but love. Everything else is just borrowed.”
Colin understood what truly mattered in life. He will be deeply missed.
