A Tribute to Colin
Colin was the embodiment of wisdom and wit, with a mind as sharp as a tack. The best neighbour & friend who we enjoyed a hot cuppa with.

Known for his vast knowledge and incredible memory, Colin had the kind of understanding that could only come from a life well-lived. He was always ready to share a story, offer advice, or spark a thoughtful conversation.

Colin“s legacy is one of kindness, curiosity, and community. He leaves behind a lifetime of memories that will continue to inspire us. Warkworth has lost not only one of its oldest but one of its wisest souls. Rest easy, Colin. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
