“I can’t believe we won’t have our daily, in-depth conversations anymore. However, I swear I’ll always send you my love. Already miss you and love you, my angel.

He lost two of his closest pals early on yesterday morning, according to local mother Emma Vassel, whose son is friends with the kids.

“After a car accident on the ring road near Moortown in Leeds, another person is in intensive care.

“This awful occurrence has crushed four families, and countless friends are currently coping with this enormous loss.

No family should experience child loss. Nobody ought to have to experience the loss of friends in such a way.

“It is very painful to see two nice young individuals who were just beginning their adult lives and had so much to live for having that cut short in such a tragic way.

“Especially, no family should have to deal with their son’s death and the additional stress of financial load.

“Polite’s brother has set up a GoFundMe to pay funeral costs and give Polite the send-off he deserves.”
