Paul and Gillian Slone, of Filey, were three days into their 10-day motorcycle tour of Germany and Austria when they were involved in the crash near Offenburg on June 13.
Mrs Slone, 41, died at the scene, while Mr Slone was placed in a coma due t
o the severity of his injuries.
This week Mr Slone, who works at Raflatac in Eastfield, was taken off life support, and the medication which kept him in the induced coma was withdrawn.
His doctor at the Klinikum Offenburg, Dr Engelhardt, has said there is a long way to go yet, probably many months, but things are "looking good so far".
Richard Hodgson, a relative of Mr and Mrs Slone, said: "Paul's parents, who are there with him in Offenburg, report that he has had two major operations while in the coma, and that he had just been able to recognise them, though as yet is unable to have a conversation."
Mrs Slone's body arrived back in Filey on Monday.
German police are investigating the collision, which is believed to have been caused by an oncoming vehicle on the wrong side of the road.
Preparations are now being made for Mrs Slone's funeral, which is being held at St Oswald's Church in Filey on Tuesday at 1pm.
Mr Hodgson said: "The family have received condolences not just from all over England but from around the world, for which we are most grateful."
As a mark off respect, Thorpe & Co Solicitors in Filey, where Gillian worked as a probate clerk for the last six years, will be closed on the day of her funeral, and HairFlair, in Union Street, Filey, where her sister June Hodgson is a director, will be closed from noon.
Mrs Slone's family have requested family flowers only, but donations may be made at the church or by cheque to Thorpe & Co Solicitors, 12 Belle Vue Street, Filey, for the charities of her choice, which are The Dog's Trust, Filey Lifeboat, the Cinnamon Trust and Cancer Research.
Mr and Mrs Slone, of Wharfedale, were married for 21 years and as well as being keen motorists, the couple enjoyed sailing. They had a yacht in Scarborough harbour and were members of the Yacht Club.
