‘He had manners, he was just getting himself on the right track and was taken way too early.
‘He will forever be with us in our hearts and minds with his cheeky little smile spreading joy.’
Danny Stephenson, Harley’s uncle, wrote: ‘Rest easy now Harley uncle Dan loves you. No matter what people may say or think of this lad his heart was always pure.
‘Keep being you up there with that beautiful smile.’
