The family of a man who died following a collision in Bryntirion on Wednesday 20th February have paid tribute to him.

Christopher Paul Badman died at the scene of the single-vehicle collision which occurred on Llangewydd Road at approximately 11:20am.

Paying tribute his family said: “My son Christopher, 40 years old, died too young.

“He had many faults and usually paid the consequences. What has happened now is the ultimate consequence.

“Chris had a heart of gold and would help anyone if he could. He had a partner whom he loved and treated her two boys like his own.

“Those who knew him well, loved him. His family and friends will always remember his “bad jokes”.

“His passing has left a huge chasm in many of our lives and I hope that people will respect our wishes and leave us to grieve in peace.”
