A father who died after his car collided with a van in Fife has been named.
Alex Muirhead, 55, from Inverkeithing was travelling along the B9157 Invertiel Road near Kirkcaldy when he was involved in the crash on Friday.
He was airlifted to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary after the accident at 7am but died from his injuries.
On Monday, his wife Cathi paid tribute to a "devoted father".
She said: "Alex was a devoted father to Lee and Greg and dearly loved husband to me. He was also a loving son to Betty and brother to Sharon.
"Over the past couple of years Alex had been heavily involved with the local Air Training Cadets and its extended family. He will be missed by his workmates at Havelock Europa in Kirkcaldy.
"Our thought and prayers go out to the family of the passenger who had been traveling to work with him and stayed with Alex until he was airlifted to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary.
"Words cannot explain the thanks Alex's family would like to say to the various staff at the hospital and police who looked after him and the family."
The passenger in the car suffered minor injuries and the driver of the Ford Transit van was uninjured in the accident.
