ColinTHOMPSONColin Thompson passed away embraced in the arms of his six daughters, on 1st November 2026, following his battle with cancer.
A man about town, Colin seemed to know everybody and always had a story to tell. Never short of a tale, a joke or an opinion, he brought laughter, warmth and plenty of character wherever he went. He leaves behind a lifetime of stories, memories and friendships that will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
Now taking his ancestral rise, Colin is reunited with his beloved mum Marge, dad Phillip and sister Pam.
A dearly loved father to Zeffy, Jemma, Beth, Naomi, Francesca and Sarah, and a much-loved grandad to eight grandchildren. He will be missed more than words can say by his family and the many friends whose lives he touched.
The funeral service will take place on 30th November 2026 at 11am at The Old Chapel, Manchester Crematorium, Barlow Moor Road, Manchester, M21 7GZ.
Family flowers only, please. Donations, if desired, to Cancer Research UK, Alzheimer's Research UK or East Cheshire Hospice.
