Family pay loving tribute to dad who died in collision in Burnley

A family have paid an emotional and loving tribute to a man who was “loved and liked by everybody”.

Tommy Jenkins (35) from Newton-le-Willows, died following a road traffic collision in Coal Clough Lane, Burnley, on December 11.

An electric bike he was riding was in collision with a BMW 1 series near to the Coal Clough public house.

Paying tribute to Tommy (pictured), his family said: “Tommy Joe was a loving son, husband, brother and dad.

“He was well known within his community, loved and liked by everybody, who lived life to the fullest.

“Losing Tommy Joe is such a massive shock and loss to his family and throughout his community whose hearts will never be healed again.

“He was a family man who loved and lived for his family – his children being his pride and joy.

“Gone but never forgotten forever and always in our hearts

“Tommy Joe Jenkins. Known as the man of men.”

Officers investigating the cause of the collision are continuing to appeal for witnesses and dashcam footage from the area.

If you can help, contact 101 – quoting log 1457 of December 11, 2024 – or email the Serious Collision Investigation Unit: [email protected].
