In the tribute, released through police, the family said: "Lance Daish, our beloved husband and father, spoke with actions.

"Often a man of few words, his love and compassion for his family was seen in every crack and callus in his hands formed working to provide a beautiful home, in every meal he'd carefully labour over and every small moment we'd share.

"Lance lived how we all aspire to, keeping those he cherished as close as possible, doing only the things that would bring them and himself comfort and joy."
