Paul Dobbs

TT rider Paul Dobbs is to be buried on the Isle of Man.

The New Zealander was killed in a crash at Ballagarey in the second Supersport race on Thursday last week.

His wife Bridget says Dobsy, as he was known, died doing what he loved most, and has brought their family infinite joy, adventure and fun.

Dobsy had two daughter, Eadlin and Hillberry.

At his request Dobsy will be buried on the Island next week.

His family hope the funeral will be a celebration of his life, rather than a mournful occasion.

Donations to the TT Riders' Association, Rob Vine Fund and ACU Benevolent Fund are invited in lieu of flowers.
