A date has been set for the funeral of Arbroath man David Spink.

Mr Spink died on Monday when his Honda motorcycle collided with a van in Craig Road, Ferryden.

A funeral service has been set for Thursday, October 8, at 2.30pm, in George Stewart’s.

All friends and family are invited to the service, with a respectful request for family flowers only.

Mr Spink’s mother Caroline said: “David was immensely popular and he will be greatly missed.”

The 32-year-old father-of-two died following the collision with a works van around 1.45pm.

Paramedics rushed to the biker’s side but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
