Francis Lee Conway, also known to his friends as Frank, who was 33 years old when he died in an incident on Canal Road in Bradford in the early hours of Friday, June 22nd.
Today his family, mum Carol England, dad Michael Conway, sisters Sarah and Katrina, brother Kieran and son, 11 year-old Charlie, have issued a tribute to Frank and appealed for anyone with information about his death to come forward.
Frank grew up in Crosland Moor at Huddersfield and attended Crosland Moor Junior School and Moorend High, before moving to Flockton in Wakefield, with his mum, when he was 14 years old. He then attended King James Grammar School in Almondbury. He left his job as a trainee manager for a supermarket in Huddersfield, about 18 months ago when he moved to Bradford to be closer to Charlie. Frank got a job at Tesco on Canal Road in Bradford, where he worked up until his death.
This afternoon his family said: "We still can't really believe that Frank has been taken from us. We feel numb but there are moments when all of a sudden it hits us that he has gone forever and that is very hard to bear.
"Frank was a very caring and loving person who was full of fun. He would always put other people before himself. He was extremely proud of his son, Charlie, and never stopped talking about him. Charlie was always his first priority and we will be concentrating on giving all our love to him and making sure he always knows how much his dad loved him.
"As a family we are very close and we are giving each other strength. Another thing that is helping us is the large number of phone calls, cards and flowers, that we have received from people who knew Frank. It is obvious to us that he was liked and respected by many people.
"It is very hard to come to terms with losing Frank but not knowing exactly what happened in the moments leading up to his death is making it even worse. We need to know why he died and we urge anyone who may have seen something in the Canal Road area on that night, or who has information about what happened, to contact the police and give us that peace of mind.
"Frank was a wonderful son, father, brother, uncle and friend and we will miss him very much."

Effects of Passing Time...
It is ever moving and will not end, that which is called time. As the years since you passed over into your next life gain momentum I notice the posts on your site grow few and far between.
This is inevitable as it is only a website and has no link to you in a direct fashion my brother.
It is thoughts and feelings of love toward you which are constant in those of which knew you. It’s this which will never cease. It is these connections of thought and feeling towards you that will never grow few, nor far between my brother.
There are many un answered questions around but one statement which needs no reply reads simply:
I MISS YOU!!
