64-year-old Sobat Ali died after chasing after three men who robbed him of £2,500 worth of jewellery on his doorstep in Hart Street, Walsall on 2 January.
Police believe he suffered a fatal heart attack as he attempted to snatch the jewellery back.
Mr Ali’s son paid tribute to his father saying his death had shattered his family.
“He was a very dedicated father and was always bringing a smile to our faces. He was very kind and down-to-earth,” said Mr Khan.
Detectives last week released an e-fit of a man wanted in connection with the attack.
