“We would like to thank Surrey Police for their sensitive and thorough handling of the ongoing investigation into this horrendous tragedy. Thank you to the people who helped and comforted Luis in his final minutes, the paramedics who tried to save his life, and to All Hallows Catholic School and Churt Football Club, for their kind support and solidarity.
“To see the thoughts and memories in which Luis is held by all who knew him is an enormous comfort. He was loved by many.
“He was a happy son, kind young boy, caring friend and a talented footballer. A promise of life with a promising future.
