Josh, then 18 and who lives with his grandparents in Beaumont Leys, Leicester, said he had been overwhelmed by messages of support and love for his mum.
He said: "My mum had a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone and would never ask for anything in return.
"Apparently, she has already saved three people through organ donation. I know she would have liked that.
"She had a lot of friends, a lot of people who loved her and I've been overwhelmed by all the messages of support people have sent since the crash and after my mum died."
