So very saddened to discover Colin has passed.
I had the joy of meeting Colin during our apprenticeship together at Pirelli, Burton.
Colin was great fun and I have very fond memories of our adventures as young happy fellas, play in the big wide world.
Rest in peace old friend.
Ben.
Will be thinking of you lots tomorrow Colin and all the family.xx
We first met Colin at a VW rally in Oswestry. He was there in his beloved Coke-a-Cola van with the Sticker Pimps and his children. Such a lovely guy in that he helped me put up my new awning and did it in minutes where it would have taken me hours! He also invited me and my son around their camp fire that night where he had a fire lit in an old washing machine drum which was a new craze! Loved reading his FB posts and following his adventures. He will be very sadly missed. Sending sincere condolences to Sammy and all the family. Rest in Peace Colin xx
We will always remember you with a smile Colin
You are so loved and will be missed so much -

It was a privilege that Colin asked me for a last photo, I don’t do selfie’s, but I couldn’t say no. Bless you Colin, I’m now ‘happy’ that I agreed! 😢😢😢😢
may you have eternal piece
I love my nephew Colin. He was taken too early. I will be reading at the funeral xxx
So sorry to hear that Colin has died. I heard many lovely things about Colin from Liz and when I spent time with you last December, your love for your family shone through. You are all in my thoughts.
My condolences to you, Sam and to all of the family. Colin was a lovely person and will be deeply missed by everyone who knew him.
Unforgettable - that’s how we would describe you in one word but there are no words enough to describe your multifaceted personality. You leave a huge hole & our hearts go out to sammy and your family. Hope you’re causing havoc up there matey x
