The family of a man who died in a collision on the A433 Tetbury Road in Cirencester earlier this month have paid tribute and described him as someone who "lived life to the full."

Tony's wife Tina has now issued a tribute saying: "On behalf of the heartbroken family of Tony Stepp (Steppy) we would like to thank all family and friends for all the love and support at this terrible time.
"Tony was a loyal husband, father, son, brother, uncle, brother-in-law and son-in-law. He was one in a million; a provider and protector who lived for his family.
"He was thoughtful, caring, loving, the rock of our family, a joker, larger than life and loved by everyone.
"Tony was an assistant manager at a local quarry and a very keen motorcycle rider. He was very passionate about motorbikes and anything with an engine. Everything Tony did he gave 110%.
"Tony was taken way too soon leaving a massive hole in our families’ and everyone’s life he had a part in."
The Stepp family would like to invite anyone who knew Tony to attend his funeral. It is being held at Wootton Bassett crematorium at 11am on Saturday 26 October with the wake being held at The Old George in South Cerney.
