UPDATE, Monday 9am: The family of Timothy Osborn - the cyclist killed in a hit and run in Spalding on Friday night - have opened their heart about him and urged the driver responsible to come forward.
IT READS: Timothy James Osborn (27) is our eldest child of 4. He wasn’t the most academic person but he had many better qualities and we were extremely proud of him.
Tim worked at Morrisons all his working life mostly in the car park pushing trolleys around and helping those who needed it to load their shopping into their cars. He loved his job and especially being outside in all weathers.
Tim didn’t want much, he was a happy child, He always said as long as I have enough money to pay my rent, update my computer and my push bike. He loved to surprise us all with small thoughtful gestures and has left all of us with a very large hole in our lives.
Tim was the light n soul of our family – always around with his fun and laughter. His family was extremely important to him and at family reunions, and parties or when we went on holidays he was the life n soul having fun and enjoying himself.
Since Tim’s death on Friday Night, we have had so many messages of support we are finding it hard to keep up with them all. We are finding out just how special our Timothy was to other people helping them through hard times and being a shoulder to cry on.
To the driver of the vehicle or their families and friends, we would like you to come forward so we can understand how this happened. We would also appeal to anybody else who has information however small to contact the police. Imagine how you would feel finding your child dying in a ditch at the side of the road not 5 mins away from home.
PLEASE PLEASE come forward and hopefully you will never have to know just how hurt and destroyed we are.
I would like to say a huge thank you to the Lincs Police, Ambulance & Fire brigade for all their hard work and dedication.
We are just a normal family, who were like many families just living our own lives the best we could when this happened.
Tim I am so sorry we couldn’t be there to stop this happening we love you forever and you will always be in our hearts.
R.I.P – TO A VERY SPECIAL SON
Mum, Dad, Emma, Zoe & Michael
