Colina’s COO Stephen Joseph Haughey, CA Passes
December 8, 1963 - August 27, 2023Nassau, The Bahamas, August 27, 2023 – It is with broken hearts and deepest sorrow that we announce the death of our beloved Chief Operating Officer, Steve Haughey.
Over the past 11 years, Steve played a pivotal role in shaping the direction of Colina Holdings Bahamas Limited and the Guardian Media Group. He was charged with overseeing and maximizing the functional synergies of the companies across the two entities. Steve was a visionary and strategic leader who was dedicated to accomplishing our mission and objectives, with a focus on digital transformation.
His dedication, wisdom, and passion were evident in every decision he made and every project he undertook. We will remember Steve, not only for his professional accomplishments but also for his unwavering commitment to our teams.
Steve held a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. A Chartered Accountant by profession, he started his career in KPMG Toronto before transferring to the firm’s local office in 1990. A few years later, he joined the Tribune and was instrumental in the launch of 100 Jamz, the country’s first private radio station.
He has positively impacted countless people since moving to The Bahamas, 33 years ago. Steve’s memory will forever live on in our hearts.
Condolences are extended to Steve’s brothers, Michael, Patrick, and Gregory Haughey; his sister, Barbara MacDonald; nieces; nephews; relatives; and friends, on behalf of the board of directors, executives, management, employees and sales teams. A Celebration of Life will be held on a date to be determined.
Gone but never forgotten. May Steve Rest in Peace.
