Keith Nutter died in hospital aged 65 following three weeks of treatment for the virus.
The former director of Barrow Raiders has been remembered as a 'top bloke' amid an outpouring of grief in the community.
The grandad of three and dad of two was described as a 'family man' by wife of 44 years Patricia.
She said: "He absolutely loved his rugby but his family were his world.
"He was a really caring man who absolutely adored us.
"It's heartbreaking. I can't believe he's gone."
Mrs Nutter said she and the family were 'praying he would survive' after he was admitted to Furness General Hospital's intensive care unit having tested positive for the virus.
