Tributes have been paid to a devoted father with a "truly extraordinary soul" who was killed in a crash near York.

Adam Anderson, 41, was fatally injured in the crash on the A59 near the A1(M) junction, west of York, on Wednesday (July 9) morning.

As reported by The Press, he was riding a red Honda motorcycle that was involved in a collision with a blue Vauxhall Mokka car at around 8am.

His family and friends have today shared a tribute to Adam, from Wakefield, saying: “Adam was a larger-than-life character whose contagious, infectious laugh and bright spirit could light up any room. His presence was impossible to ignore, and his warmth drew people to him wherever he went.

“Above all, Adam was an amazing dad who lived for his daughter - every decision he made and every ounce of his effort was for her. His impeccable work ethic was matched only by his unshakable moral fibre; he worked tirelessly to provide for his family and set an example of integrity and dedication.

“To his friends and family, Adam was the most loyal and dependable person you could hope to have by your side - the kind of man who got far more joy out of giving than receiving, and who never hesitated to put others first.
