James Turner died on the evening of July 25 after a fatal collision on the B3252, near the A38, at Horningtops, near Liskeard. He was killed when the motorbike he was riding collided with a tractor and a trailer.
Tributes flooded in for the self-employed landscaper, from Widegates, near Looe, following the incident. The death of the 'respected' and 'selfless' dad, partner, son, brother and grandad has left 'a huge hole' in his family, who say they have been 'overwhelmed' by the support shown to them since the tragic collision.
Now friends have launched an online fundraiser (below) to help his heartbroken family give James the send-off he deserves. His son-in-law, Ben Hirst, said: "James was a much-loved dad, partner, son, brother and grandad. He would do anything for anyone. He was happy, kind, caring and selfless, and would help anyone in times of need.
