The family of a Suffolk motorcyclist killed in a crash on the A12 last month have been paying tribute.

Police were called to the A145 junction at Blythburgh on May 25, to reports a motorbike had hit a stationary van.

29 year old Alexander Wilford from Worlingham was pronounced dead at the scene.

Alexander’s family have issued the following tribute:

“Alex was a man full of ideas and possibilities: he had a beautiful soul and made the world a better place by being here.

“Alex lived in Worlingham and worked all over Suffolk. For most of his working life, he was a knowledgeable and passionate tree surgeon.

"Recently Alex diversified into the world of vehicle recovery and in April this year he fulfilled his dream and started up his own business, Aqua Trad.

“Alex was a wonderful partner, son, uncle and friend. He is missed immensely by his partner Rachel, his mum and dad and everyone else whose lives he touched and has so many happy memories of him.”

Police are still appealing for witnesses or anyone with information about the crash to get in touch.
