Mother pays tribute to 'cheeky son'

A 18-year-old man who sadly died in a collision on the A44 at Monkland last Tuesday has been named as Kallum Wilkes.

The family have said: “With hearts that are broken, we lost our beloved and cheeky son/brother in a tragic accident on the 27 February on the A44. Our lives will never be the same. We have lost the most cheeky and fun loving person.

"We give our heartfelt thanks to everyone for their condolences, support and kind words and the generosity from near and far to help us prepare the perfect send off for Kallum.

"He will be sorely missed by family and friends and his memory will live on with all that met Kallum.

"Ride high our boy, we all love you and miss you”
