Geraldine “Geri” Evlyn Rose Collins 1944-2023

CFDCofCIFN is sad to hear the passing of Geri Collins.

Geri was a founder of our organization and leader for 27 years and as well, a true believer of Indigenous Economic growth and inclusion. She was respected and known for her tireless work and commitment to the issues she believed in. Geri will be missed by many organizations regionally, provincially, and nationally, but never forgotten.

Special condolences to the Colins family for their loss on behalf of CFDCofCIFN Board, management, and staff.
