A 'PASSIONATE' bus driver who helped residents get from A to B in and around Reading has passed away.

A fundraising page has been set up in Shaun's memory in the hope of getting a Reading bus named after him.

The money raised through the page will also be used to help with the funeral costs and any money left over will be donated to bus charities.

Enrique Tomas, who organised the page, said: "This fundraiser has been made to help Shaun's family with some of the funeral cost and possibly donate some to a bus charity in his name, as we all know, his number one passion was Buses and all that's related to them.

"This was an unexpected pass away that come as shock to all of us, I'm sure they will be happy to see us accomplish one of Shaun's dreams to help reading buses or get a bus named after him at some buses local charity."
