“An active member of Corwen and District Angling Club, he ran the Club's junior training days encouraging more youngsters into the sport and was never happier than when out on the riverbank.
“He was a much loved husband and devoted father and we will miss him and his quirky sense of humour forever.
“We are devastated to have lost him and request privacy at this most difficult time.
“We would like to thank everyone who helped Matt at the scene of the collision and the staff of Cheshire Police for their continued support."
