    The family of a man who died in a road traffic collision in Brogborough has paid tribute to him.

    David Patterson, 80, from Brogborough, was crossing Bedford Road just before 7.30am on Tuesday (16 January) when he was involved in a collision with a black Nissan Qashqai. Emergency services attended and Mr Patterson was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.

    Paying tribute, his family said: “David was a loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather.

    “He was the life and soul of the party and was loved by everyone that he met. He was a gentleman.
