In loving memory of Colin Antony Howarth who sadly passed away on 12th June 2025.

Colin was the youngest child to Christopher and Christine Howarth. He had 2 older sisters, Carol and Tracy. Carol and Mark (brother in law) went on to have 3 Children, giving Colin 3 Nieces. Jamie, Jordan & Jade.
When Colin was a young boy, he loved playing football and that continued all throughout the years.

In 2010 he was blessed with a beautiful baby boy, Archie. Colin loved him with every inch of his being and loved being a father. They both loved their football as well with Colin supporting Manchester United.

Unfortunately on valentine’s day 2024 he found out he had lung cancer which gave him 18 months. It then progressed to a brain tumour but being the person he was he carried on fighting. all the way to the end. he fought so hard for 16 months until he decided he had had enough. 💔

He leaves behind a family heartbroken, but above all a family who loved him very much. 💛

Very fond memories of Colin at the Royal Oak Whitfield. He was always cheerful. He played football , skittles and darts for the Oak. Very popular, great company. We loved him.

Dearest Colin, we spent many years together as children, laughing, playing and enjoying our families together.
As adults we partied until sunrise, dancing the night away.
Although for many years we lived hundreds of miles apart in different countries we always kept in touch and enjoyed catching up with each other.
Last summer we were able to make memories together once again and it was as if we had never been apart.
I love you cuz and I always will. Rest easy, party hard and one day we will be together again. But until then you will remain in my heart forever.
Love Kim xxxxxx

We both worked at Serco on crew1 together as loaders before he moved over to streets. We had such a laugh together. Whenever I saw him he was always smiling and having laugh.

I have many great memories of Colin from the late nineties to the mid-noughties. He was a top mate to me during this time and I will never forget the fun times we had together. He was an absolute legend!
