Callum Green, known affectionately as 'CJ', was in critical care in hospital for more than a week before he died on January 14.

The dad-of-one had been complaining of pains in his arms in the weeks prior to his death and was due to speak to a doctor on the day he had a heart attack on January 6.

Friend Will Keight, whose wife, Jenny, had known Callum since he was born, described him as being "the life and soul of the party".

The 38-year-old said: "The majority of the time when we got together it would be at a function or a party and he was always the life and soul - always smiling.

"I think some of the best memories I have of him is doing the 'Cha Cha Slide' - that is the sort of happy memory I think a lot of people have of him.
