Ashley Greensides, aged 20, died on 1 April, 2009, after being involved in a crash.
He passed away at Hull Royal Infirmary, with his family by his side.
Mr Greensides worked as an apprentice electrician for Grimsby firm Townsend Electrical.
His father Dave said: "He was training so hard, and would have been qualified in just a few months time."
His younger brother Nick was on holiday in Gran Canaria when he was told the news and returned to the country as soon as he could.
Mr Greensides, a former Matthew Humberstone School pupil, had been due to celebrate his girlfriend's 18th birthday with her on 2 April, 2009.
He had recently become an uncle for the first time when his other brother, Michael, had a baby boy, Harry.
Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day
Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away
My Dream of you
I had a lovely dream last night
I wish it had come true.
I travelled on a shooting star
and made my way to you.
You welcomed me with open arms
and held me oh so tight.
You took me to a wonderful place
and what a beautiful sight.
The angels were singing quietly
as you took me by the hand.
Into God's Beautiful Garden
a wonderous and pleasant land.
You kissed me softly on the lips
I held you close to me.
I didn't want to let you go
I couldn't set you free.
You told me that you loved me
and would for ever more.
But that I must go back now
and you led me to Heaven's Door.
I floated down upon a cloud
My eyes were filled with tears.
You waved goodbye once again
and said wait a few more years.
As I awoke this morning
and I lay there in my bed
I couldn't help but wonder
at all things you said.
I know you are at peace now,
and I am still your loving wife
I thank the dear Lord up above
for bringing you into my life.
So when my time is over
and I lay my head to rest
I'll go back on that shooting star
To the one I love the best.

Why go why?
Why go why do you take them so young
I myself had a 26 year old son.
He died 1 week after Ashley
Its so cruel to take these young men
To the family i pay my respects
and say remember ALL the good times
