At that time Colin said that he was "fit and well and very active at 82 (and a quarter!) and feel good for a while yet", which would have made him 88 (and three-quarters) when he died. The pancreatic cancer came on suddenly.
Also in April 2019 Colin wrote that there were "still tapes to transcribe. I’m aware I have to get onto them. Ronan refused to be interviewed by me, after second thoughts. Same with Tony Windsor/Withers."
Chris Edwards has confirmed that Colin sent those tapes to Offshore Echos and Pirate Radio Hall of Fame earlier this year, so they are not lost.

The interviews he did with the early Atlanta / Caroline people, available on the Pirate Radio Hall Of Fame, are a valuable resource for anyone interested in the early days of UK offshore radio.
