A WELL-KNOWN businessman who died suddenly in Spain has been fondly remembered in a heartfelt tribute. 

The local community has been plunged into mourning following the death of well-known businessman, Colin Parkinson. 

Mr. Parkinson, 63, ran shops in both Kesh and Enniskillen, and was a much-loved father-of-four; Lucy, Ben, Abbie and Molly. 

Abbie, who is an accomplished social media influencer, paid a heartfelt tribute to her late father on TikTok. 

"Thank you for letting me make funny videos about you and thank you for always believing in my crazy dreams from a young age", she posted, alongside photos. 

"Heaven got you early", she added. 

A respected local businessman, Mr. Parkinson was the owner of the former MACE shop in Kesh, and also owned Scaffog Filling Station, Enniskillen. 

For the latter, he was honoured in 2010 with a major awarded in the Forecourt Trader Awards. 

Aside from business, the late Kesh man had a passion for running, and completed a number of marathons, including the London, Dublin and New York marathons.

He spent his later life in the south of Spain, where he will be laid to rest later this week.
