A motorcyclist who died in a crash has been described as a 'devoted husband and father'.
62-year-old Rob Love from Wiltshire died on the A350 West Ashton when his Yamaha YP 400 collided with a Volkswagen Taigo.
The crash happened on 17 December at around 9.10pm. Mr Love's family has paid tribute to him.
The statement said: "Rob was a devoted husband, father and grampy/grampsie to his three grandchildren.
"Born to military parents in England but raised in Edinburgh with his sister Marnie, Rob joined the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards in 1980 and served as a gunner mech for 13 years which included active service during the Gulf War in 1990.
"Rob was based in Warminster where he met his wife, Sue, in 1987 and they married the following year. They enjoyed 37 years together with their son Stuart and stepchildren Antony and Richard.
"They settled in Westbury and resided there for over 30 years where Rob enjoyed many hobbies particularly walking his dogs Sam, Bruce and Ralphy and spending time socialising with his neighbours who he had become closer to during the pandemic with the affectionately named ‘Back Lane Gang’.
"He was also a passionate scooter rider who enjoyed organised events with the local biking community (the Maxi Muppets).
"Rob will be dearly missed by Sue, the boys, his grandchildren, sister, nephew, extended family and friends.
"You will forever be my always."
