A Long Hanborough man who moved to Inverness 15 months ago was killed in a road accident on April 28.

Shaun Aris, 31, who was born and raised in Long Hanborough, moved to Scotland with his wife Annette and two children Benjamin, five, and Joanna, two, to begin a new life.

He had launched his own fire protection business, Action Fire, and the family was about to convert a barn into a new home at Drumnadrochit, near Inverness.

The funeral took place on May 6 at Drumnadrochit.

The accident happened on the A92, near Kirkcaldy. Mr Aris and his brother-in-law, James Hickson, were travelling home when their van collided with a JCB. Mr Hickson was injured.

Mr Aris was educated at Bartholomew School, Eynsham, where he met his wife. His three sisters and brother all live in Oxfordshire.

He played for Long Hanborough football team which, at their end of season dinner, raised £500 for his children.

Mr Aris was also a keen Oxford United supporter.

A thanksgiving service for Mr Aris will be held on May 16 at 2.30pm at Long Hanborough Methodist Church.

Anyone who knew him is very welcome to attend.

A collection will be made for Mr Aris's children.

Anyone who cannot attend the service but would like to contribute can call 01463 712255.
