Tributes to dad killed in motorway crash

Mr Aitchison’s family added: “We are all still in shock, we are devastated.

“Our family and Danny’s friends will always remember him as a generous, hardworking family man with a mischievous sense of humour.

“Danny was always laughing and joking.

He would love to take the mickey out of us if we took ourselves too seriously.

“We are still almost waiting for him to come round to our mum’s for breakfast on Sunday.

“Kerry and the kids were the world to Danny.

His daughter Ella, 15, and son Jack, 9, are a credit to him.

“All our energy will be going into looking after Ella – who has been doing her GCSEs – and Jack.”

Police want to hear from anyone who had dashcam footage from either side of the M58 between 12:40 BST and 13:00 on 17 May.
