Flowers left for husband, father and grandfather
12:23pm Monday 13th October 2008
Floral tributes have been left at the scene where an elderly man died at the wheel of his car on Friday.
The local man, named as Tony on the displays, died after apparently suffering a heart attack.
The incident took place on the A342 at St Edith’s Marsh, Bromham, at around 12.45pm.
Brightly coloured floral displays now cover the pavement next to the busy road, with loving messages from the driver's wife, children and many grand children.
One such tribute read: "To my loving husband 'Tony'. Forever in my thoughts, never to be forgotten. Love always from your loving wife Mary xxx"
Another said: "Love you always dad, miss you so much. You were such a lovely dad. Thankyou for taking such good care of us. Love always, pat and Steve xxx"
Police have confirmed no one else was involved in the road incident.
