Dyfed-Powys Police is continuing to investigate a fatal RTC on the B4319, Pembroke to Maidenwells road last Thursday.

Two vehicles were involved in the collision, a grey Mitsubishi Shogun and a black Kawasaki motorcycle.

The male rider of the motorcycle, 63-year-old Peter MacKay from Maidenwells, who worked for the urgent care service in Pembroke Dock and was on his way home from work when the accident happened, sadly sustained fatal injuries.

Peter joined the Welsh Ambulance Trust in 2005 after spending 18 years as an operations engineer at the Texaco oil refinery at Angle Bay. Prior to that, he was a member of the armed forces.

Rob Jeffery, the Welsh Ambulane Trust's head of operations for the Hywel Dda University Health Board area, paid tribute saying: "Peter was immensely proud of being a part of the Welsh Ambulance Service and cared deeply for the patients he met on a daily basis. He gave freely of his time, supporting crucial crew and many other initiatives.

"Peter was also a UNISON steward for a time, and was always determined to represent the best interest of staff whilst keeping the needs of the patient at the forefront of any discussion.

"He was an accomplished cricketer, a fundraiser for many charities and was a very talented player of the bagpipes and played at the recent armed forces day.

"Staff across the Welsh Ambulance Service will understand the sense of loss felt by his friends and colleagues, and it is at such time that the ambulance family join, together to support each other.

"Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time."

As we were going to press yesterday (Thursday), Peter's family also released a tribute to their devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather, loyal friend.

In the statement, they said: "It is impossible to sum up a fitting tribute to you Pete, dad, there is not enough space in this 'paper, nor the words in the dictionary to even begin to come close to describing the man that you were. The massive void that has been left in our lives will never be filled, but the help, advice, love and support that you have selflessly given us over the years will continue to guide us and the fond memories will always be there for us to call upon when the wicket becomes a little sticky. His life touched the hearts of so many. So many more than he realised, this has become apparent from the messages and support that has been given to our family. This volume is a tribute to you alone dad."

Police are appealing to anyone who witnessed the collision, or anyone with any information to contact PC454 Longhurst by calling 101.

Peter's family thank everyone for their kindness and support, but due to the number of visitors would ask anyone wishing to pay their respects in person to contact them prior to visiting the family home.
