The victim of a fatal motorcycle crash earlier this week<\/a> was a young dad-of-two who was due to marry the “love of his life” in August.<\/p>\n Daniel Taylor, who was in his 30s, crashed on the L1556 on the Ballinamore to Cloone road in Co Leitrim<\/a> at around 8:40am on Thursday.<\/p>\n He was initially taken by air ambulance to Beaumont Hospital in Dublin, where he was later pronounced dead.<\/p>\n Family and friends have since set up a GoFundMe <\/a>to help ease the financial burden on his grieving loved ones.<\/p>\n It read: “Our hearts were broken when we lost Dan following a tragic motorcycle accident<\/a>. After being airlifted to hospital in Dublin, he sadly passed away in the early hours of the morning.<\/p>\n Daniel and Lisa were due to tie the knot in just a few weeks time<\/p>\n “Dan leaves behind the love of his life, Lisa, and their two beautiful children, Jack (15) and Amylee (14). They were due to be married on the 10th of August, a day they had been looking forward to with so much excitement and love.<\/p>\n “Anyone who knew Dan knew he was the life of the party. He had a way of making everyone laugh and feel welcome. He was hardworking, devoted to his family, and always put those he loved first.<\/p>\n “He loved surprising his future wife with thoughtful gestures and little acts of kindness that showed just how much she meant to him.<\/p>\n “Dan was the kind of friend everyone hoped to have.<\/p>\n “If someone needed help, he was there without hesitation. His generosity, loyalty, and warm heart touched so many lives, and he will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.”<\/p>\n Daniel and the ‘love of his life’ Lisa<\/p>\n The GoFundMe continued: “As Dan was the main provider for his family, we are raising funds to help ease the financial burden during the difficult months ahead.<\/p>\n “The money raised will go towards everyday household bills and essential living expenses, allowing Lisa the time and space to grieve without the added worry of immediate financial pressures.<\/p>\n “We also hope to help her take Jack and Amylee away for a few days during the week they were meant to celebrate Dan and Lisa’s wedding.<\/p>\n “We hope this will give them the opportunity to spend some quiet time together, away from home, as they begin to navigate this unimaginable loss.<\/p>\n “Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers.”<\/p>\n Daniel and Lisa have two teenage children together, Jack (15) and Amylee (14)<\/p>\n Garda\u00ed<\/a> are appealing to anyone who witnessed this collision to come forward.<\/p>\n Road users who may have camera footage including dash-cam and were travelling on the L1556 Ballinamore to Cloone road between 8:15am and 9:00am on June 25 are asked to make contact with investigating Gardai.<\/p>\n Anyone with any information is asked to contact Carrick-on-Shannon Garda Station on 071 965 0510, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station.<\/p>\n Donations to the GoFundMe, can be made here<\/a><\/p>\n![\"Daniel](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/721190147_10244259243755504_5059666606488393592_n-1.jpg\")
