Help widow after tragic death of recovery driver.

On the 11th of January John Brown tragically lost is life while out helping vulnerable people in his recovery truck in Elland West Yorkshire. The police investigation could take 12 months or more as to how this has happened, and an inquest has now started. The coroner has finally released Johns body and the funeral will now go ahead at the end of the month. He has left behind his wife Sarah and his two sons Mathew and Andrew. Johns’ wife Sarah is such a hard-working fulltime carer for special needs children working long days and also through the night.

John was such an amazing character who as well as being a recovery driver was also a MOT tester and mechanic. He was the salt of earth and loved helping people whenever he could. I feel privileged to have called him my friend and work colleague.

We have no idea how long this process is going to take and I’m worried for Sarah financially until all the various investigations are completed and hopefully she can get some help. I am asking for any donation to try and cover one year’s wages for John, so Sarah and his family hopefully don’t have the worry of losing their family home or any other financial difficulties that could come their way.

I really do appreciate that times are so hard for everybody, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
