Graham Hanigan passed along the sad news of the passing of Colin Coles yesterday (6 June).
Graham has no other details, but will pass them on when they become available.
Peter Burgess provided the below photo of Col who was a good mate of his way back during training days etc. Peter has spoken to Col’s wife on Col’s mobile number. She promised to send him detail of the funeral but she’s obviously in shock at this time.
Peter recalls that Col trained as TRTO in DCA Training School at Waverton in NSW and that he was an avid Ham Radio guy.. Call sign VK2ZZU
After he finished his training, Col spent quite a while in Carnarvon Earth Station and later on in his career he worked in Police Radio.
You will be updated as information is passed on.
Below is a photo of Col with his wife, Andrea, in better days:
