Director Alex Lymer paying tribute said: "Dean was a very popular member of our team, and his sudden loss has left us stunned.

"He was one of the industry’s best drivers and was always willing to help others whenever he could.

"On a personal note I was honoured to have known Dean for 15 years. And to actually have the privilege of him working at Lymers over the last 12 months has been something special.

"He will be sorely missed by us all so much. Our thoughts go out to his family at this very sad time.”

In a fitting tribute Dean’s lorry, a 25-plate Volvo, will be at the Lincoln TruckFest this weekend, and the Lymers team are going to mark his passing with a celebration of his life.

Alex said: “It was only his 2nd new lorry in his career and he was made up with it.”

RIP Dean, thank you for everything - you will never be forgotten.
