Tributes have been paid to a “beloved” grandfather who died in hospital after being involved in a crash.<\/p>\n
Motorcylist Kenneth Bright, from Llanharry, Rhondda Cynon Taf, was taken to hospital by ambulance after colliding with a car on the A4106 in Tythegston, Bridgend at 13:50 BST on 1 July.<\/p>\n
He died in hospital on 4 August, and his family have described the suddenness of his passing as “difficult to comprehend” but said they are taking comfort in knowing he is now at peace.<\/p>\n
South Wales Police said it was continuing its investigation and have appealed for anyone who witnessed the collision, or may have any dashcam or CCTV footage, to come forward.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The crash involved a silver Triumph motorcycle, which was driven by Mr Bright and a red Land Rover Defender.<\/p>\n
The police said it was interested in speaking with the elderly occupants of a yellow Honda Civic who stopped at the scene but left before police arrived, as they may have “valuable information” regarding the crash.<\/p>\n
It also encouraged the driver of a small grey car which was turning right into Dan-y-Graig nursing home to make contact, as they may have seen the motorcycle in the moments before the incident.<\/p>\n
In a tribute, Mr Bright’s family said: “As a beloved father, grandfather, brother and son, his loss has left us in shock and he will be dearly missed by his loving family, and many friends.<\/p>\n
“We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the ambulance service and incredible staff at the Heath Hospital, whose tireless efforts and compassion will never be forgotten.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
