A long-time resident of Rous Mill and known to many as Mick, Col was the dearly loved husband of Sue for 55 years.
Much loved and proud father of Sheree and Rod, father-in-law of Brendan and Katherine,
and devoted grandfather to Eleanor, Caitlin, David and Georgia, with whom he shared a very special bond.
