Born Brynmenyn, Wales 1924. Passed away 22^nd November 2012 at home surrounded by his caring wife Leigh and Kim, Philippa, Fiona and Alannah children of Colin's beloved first wife Kay. His grandchildren, Jess, Dylan, Leonardo, Jasper and Julia will miss his absurd sense of humour. A spirited individual to the end, Colin served in WWII British Royal Navy, where he received the nickname ‘Lucky Guns'. That luck stuck with him throughout his family life and distinguished architectural career. A great lover of fun and frivolity, Colin will be dearly missed by all who had the pleasure to know him.
