Title: RIP Colin Baggaley :-(
Post by: Fly on February 16, 2012, 08:14:48 PM

Husband of the late Rita, one of towns iconic figures :-(
I'd known them both for some 12-15yrs whilst in my role as a Chesterfield taxi driver.

If your not from Chesterfield, you might find this post, 'a bit strange'
RIP to you both xx

AFAIK Bryon Donkins for 30 years.
If you don't know, or knew Rita, you wouldn't know Colin ;-)

Yes, he worked in the 'fettling shop' at Donkins - oddly enough I was only talking about him last week. He was a keen Brass Band follower and would regularly be seen on the front row of any local concert/contest. Nice guy - don't.didn't know Rita.
