Stephen Brian was just 46 when he died two weeks ago, after he came off his bike on Cranbrook Road, in Acomb, near his home in Carr Lane.
His widow Gillian said he was a great believer in organ donation and wanted a change in the law to make donation after death automatic.
“Because Stephen suffered a brain injury and no other injuries it seemed the obvious thing to do. He has been able to help so many people and it’s just some small consolation really and it’s what he would have wanted. He cared so much about other people and he always wanted to help people.”
Mrs Brian praised the staff at Hull Royal Infirmary where Stephen was a patient and said she had been told one of his kidneys had gone to a 40-year-old woman, the other kidney had gone to a 50-year-old man and he had given sight to two different people. In addition the tendons from his legs and his heart valves were also saved.
