Family tributes paid to Billingham 8 year old
The ‘Devastated’ family of Rhys Cameron pay tribute to ‘lovely’ little boy who carried ‘huge smile’
The eight-year-old boy died at a property on Marsh House Avenue in Billingham between Saturday 13 September and Monday 15 September.
His family has paid the following tribute:
“Rhys was a lovely little son, brother, nephew, grandson and friend to many who loved and knew him in the community.
“He had a cheery, funny and beautiful personality and carried a huge smile wherever he went that will forever be remembered.
“His love for listening to music, playing with his friends and toothbrushes brought joy to us all.
“To say we as a family are devastated is an understatement, Rhys will be missed more than we can ever put into words.
“We take comfort from the words of support we have received, and the love shown to Rhys as we continue to take time to come to terms with our tragic loss.”
Specialist officers are supporting Rhys’s family during this difficult time and our thoughts continue to be with them.
A 40-year-old woman has been charged with murder and appeared at Teesside Crown Court on Friday 19 September.
She has been remanded in custody until her next appearance at Teesside Crown Court on Thursday 6 November.
