Tribute to 'Young at Heart' Dad Killed in Hanley Road Collision
This is the tragic first picture of a 'much loved' family man who died in a collision with a car. Barry Mumford was walking along Meigh Street, Hanley, when he was involved in a crash with a red Seat Leon on Saturday, March 28.
Family's Heartfelt Tribute
The 80-year-old, from Werrington, was named as the pedestrian killed as his family paid tribute to a 'young at heart' dad, granddad, and brother. He suffered serious head injuries and despite being taken to hospital, he died later the same day.
In a tribute to him, Barry’s family said he was a "much loved dad, grandad, and brother, taken from us far too soon". It added: "He was young at heart, active, independent, and always there for his family. We are devastated by his loss and ask that anyone who may have seen anything to please come forward."
Police Investigation Ongoing
Staffordshire Police said his family continue to be supported by specialist officers. The driver of the Seat continues to assist collision investigators with their enquiries.
The force urged anyone with information to contact them. They said: "We are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area with any information or dashcam footage which could help collision investigators."
The collision took place at 11.23am on that day. Call them on 101, quoting incident 324 of 28 March, or message using Live Chat on their website. You can also get in touch with collision investigators directly by emailing ciu@staffordshire.police.uk.
