In Memory Of Our Dear Friend And Colleague, Colin Tallis

 

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our dear friend and colleague, Colin Tallis.

Colin was a valued member of the Port Express team for over 15 years. A true larger-than-life character, Colin was well known and respected not just within our business, but across the wider industry and local community.

He will be fondly remembered for his deep love of Liverpool Football Club, his pride in his home city, and his affection for his cats – all of which he spoke about often with passion and humour.

Anyone who knew Colin will also remember his legendary dance moves at the Christmas parties, his booming, infectious laugh, and his ability to light up any room he entered.

For many of us, Tuborg beer will now always bring a smile and a memory of Colin – it was his drink of choice, and a fitting reminder of a man who was truly one of a kind.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time. He will be greatly missed by all of us at Port Express.

The family has set up a tribute page in Colin’s memory, where messages can be shared and donations made, should anyone wish to do so.
