A family has paid tribute to their “superhero" after a Southampton man died following a fatal collision with a motorcycle on the Itchen Bridge.

Lee Michael Anderson, 51, of Wadhurst Gardens, died in hospital four days after a collision with a motorcycle at around 7.15pm on Wednesday, September 25.

Today, the 51-year-old's family have paid tribute to him.

They said: "Lee was a loving brother and unique person, who was taken from us far too soon. 

"He would always put others before himself and really liked to help out, especially within the community where he lived.

"To his family he is a real superhero, as he was an organ donor, and many people are now alive because of his loving kindness."
