Goodbye to the best friend a city could have

This week, Detroit mourns the loss of a true champion and friend, Colin Hubbell.  He deeply loved this city and gave his all to making it the best it could be.  And beyond his work as a developer, Detroit-supporter, and transit-advocate, he was a kind and wonderful human being who never hesitated to share a hug and a smile. 

Here are a few of the many wonderful remembrances:
