The family of Danny Moore, a 44-year-old pedestrian from West Chiltington who tragically lost his life in a collision in Cowfold last month, has paid tribute to him.
Danny was killed at the scene following a collision with a Mercedes car on the A272 Bolney Road shortly after 1 a.m. on Saturday, 31 August.
In a heartfelt statement, his family said: “Danny was a devoted father, son, brother and friend. He was hardworking, generous, and sociable, and there was nothing he cherished more than spending quality time with his son, whether it was playing football, bowling, holidaying in Portugal, or grilling meat on the barbecue.”
They added: “We are all devastated and heartbroken by what has happened. We miss Danny profoundly and are struggling to come to terms with his absence. One thing is clear, there is now a significant, irreplaceable void in our lives, and a 10-year-old boy who no longer has his daddy.”
A 30-year-old man from London has been arrested on suspicion of drug-driving and causing death by careless driving in connection with the incident. He has been released on bail as the investigation continues.
Sussex Police are appealing for anyone with information, including dashcam or CCTV footage, to come forward. Information can be sent via email to collision.appeal@sussex.police.uk, quoting Operation Cambrose.
