Philip Marsh: "Greatly missed by all his family"

Mr Marsh, an administrator, lived in the Little Hulton area of the city.

His mum, Dot Howarth, said: "Phil was a brilliant lad who will be greatly missed by all his family, friends and anyone who knew him.

"It's difficult to put him into words - he was a lively lad who had a constant smile and was always laughing."

His dad, Sam Marsh, said: "Even people who had just met Phil loved him, he had so many different friends, some twice his age, some young kids.

"Everyone loved spending time with him, he was so generous he would do anything for anyone."
