The family of 22-year-old Max Riley Berry, who passed away following a fatal collision on the A417 last Saturday (23 October), have issued the below tribute:
“Max grew up in Lancashire with his family, where he developed his love of horses, and first came to the Gloucester area when he was accepted as an equine student to Hartpury College in 2015.
“He then went on to complete a degree in Equine Business Management before becoming a member of the equine staff at the University.
“Max also worked at Renkum Stud in Malvern whilst at University where he made many close friends and from where both his horses came.
“After taking this summer off to compete his horses, Tini and Ammo, at show jumping events across the country, he started his dream job at Brendon Stud near Brighton.
“Max was a popular individual who had many friends and was loved by both his peers and colleagues alike.
“He will be sadly missed by all of his family, who would like to thank all the emergency service personnel who attended the scene.
“Max’s funeral will be held at Skipton Crematorium, Walton Wrays Cemetery, Carlton Road, Skipton, BD23 3BT on Thursday 11 November at 2.10pm, if any of his friends or colleagues would like to attend.”
