I learnt today that Colin died in the early hours this morning, he had been ill for some time.
He will be remembered with much love by the Mountfield community and neighbouring parishes, Colin seemed to know everyone.
He devoted his life to Mountfield – chairman of the parish council for many years and a founder member of Battle Area Community Transport.
People sometimes called him “Mr. Mountfield,” he didn’t like that too much, but it was always said with affection.
I remember his kindness and patience when I became Mountfield parish clerk – April 2010 – the time he spent with me telling me all about its history, problems and he was a continual source of support.
It is another sad day for Mountfield.
