Colin Michael Mulhern (July 15, 1988 – August 27, 2018) One of the brightest stars ever left us on Monday morning, August 27, 2018. Colin Michael Mulhern died in a tragic car accident in California while on tour with a band he was managing [Short Fuse 59]. He was 30 years old. Colin is the son of Joanne and Mike Mulhern, brother of Casey and Catie. He was a 2007 Graduate of Cherry Creek High School, Denver, Colorado. He had his own apparel line called DARKLY and was the lead vocalist in the Band “If I Fail.”
Colin is loved by so many people that knew him from the neighborhood, school and the vast Music World he was connected with. His family, friends, dogs, movies, Broadway shows, all things Irish and Notre Dame and Music were his passions in life. Colin never hesitated to say “I Love You” and his bear hugs were the BEST!
“I’ll be your wings. Give me a chance and I’ll stitch up your heartstrings.” ~ Colin Mulhern
