Funds are flowing in for the grieving family of Kyle Ascough, the 29-year-old Warner father-of-three who died in a tragic motorcycle accident at the weekend.

“Kyle was always the most generous and biggest provider,” Ms Turner wrote on her Facebook profile.

“It’s time for us to return the favour by giving him the funeral he deserves and the biggest send off, just the way he would have wanted it.

“We will be putting the rest of the money in bank accounts divided into (three) for our children.”

Kyle Ascough’s motorcycle collided with an oncoming car at the intersection of Lilley Rd and Beech Drive, Cashmere, about 8pm at the weekend.

Family friend Kadie Maccaronio said she worked with Ms Turner to “support his three kids and give them the start to their life their dad was always trying to give them.”

Further funds will be taken from merchandise sales of the Kyle Ascough memorial shirt, created by Ms Turner in tribute to “The King, The Don”.

Grieving fiancee Gopi Turner created commemorative shirts to ensure Kyle Ascough's name lives on.

The shirts retail for $20 and read, “Forever 29” on the back.

“He always said he wanted his name to live on and it really will,” Ms Turner said.

“He was the best man I ever knew and he left this world undefeated.”
