Unlikeliest of matches, we thought the same, felt the same and laughed at the same things. He was kindhearted, curious, thoughtful and man, was he funny. Forget “was”. To me he still is. I loved him and so did all who met him.”

In addition to his brother, Harry Colomby is survived by his wife, Lee, and son, Scott.
