Tributes have been paid to a cyclist with "a heart of gold" who died after falling off his bicycle.
Paul Jones, from Gwernaffield in Flintshire, died five days after coming off his bicycle in the village.
The 54-year-old was taken to Wrexham Maelor Hospital following the incident which took place on Saturday, November 21.
He was later transferred to a hospital in Stoke but sadly died on Thursday, November 26.
His family have paid tribute to the "much-loved man" who they described as having "a heart of gold".
They said: "Our dad Paul was a much-loved man who was surrounded by his family and friends.
"He was always laughing and joking and made everyone he met feel at ease. He had a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone. He was a proud father of us two girls, and more recently a proud grampy.
"Paul was a very skilled joiner with a strong work ethic. Ever the perfectionist, Paul took great pride in his work and never had to advertise his business due to so many recommendations and repeat customers, many of whom became close friends.
"A dad, grampy, son, brother, partner and friend, Paul will be sorely missed by all those who knew and loved him."
North Wales Police offered its "heartfelt sympathies" to Mr Jones' family and friends.
A spokesman for the force said: "North Wales Police issued an appeal for witnesses after being contacted by the Wrexham Maelor Hospital during the early hours of Saturday, November 21, to a report that a cyclist had been taken there after coming off his bike at Gwernaffield near Mold.
"The cyclist was later taken to hospital in Stoke. Our heartfelt sympathies remain with Mr Jones’ family and friends at this incredibly difficult time.
"A file will now be prepared for the coroner."
