Really nice, thanks for the link. Doesn’t say who he’s survived by - does anyone know if Colin had children?

I was under the impression he was a lifelong bachelor and always lived alone., which is why I brought up the notebooks. I hope whoever he's left his belongings to appreciates the historical value those books will have and they fall into safe hands.

Thanks for this, and a very good point.
