In a tribute, they said:

“Aiden was an amazing young man who touched the lives of so many people. He was funny, caring, thoughtful and had a wonderful ability to light up any room he walked into.

“He always put other people first and would do anything to help. If you needed him, he was there without question. His kindness, generosity and loyalty made him loved and respected by everyone who knew him.

“Aiden was passionate about sport and was well known within the local rugby community. Whether he was playing, supporting others as a sports massage therapist and physiotherapist, running and hiking with his dad or cheering on Northampton Saints with his mum, and he loved spending time with his sisters. He gave everything 100 per cent.

“He had an infectious sense of humour and a talent for making people laugh. So many people have their own funny story about Aiden, and those memories will stay with us forever.

“The amount of love that has been shown to Aiden and our family since his death is testament to the person he was and the impact he had on so many lives.

“While we try to come to terms with our devastating loss, we would respectfully ask for privacy as a family. We would also ask that people remember Aiden for the loving, caring and inspirational person he was.

“He was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.”
