Celine, who lived with Dan along with her young son Marley, is expecting Dan's child.

She wrote: "Dan, you were the light of my life and you put the huge smile on my face everyday even when I didn't want to smile.

I'm so glad me and my little man had you walk into our lives.

I love and miss you more than anything. You will always be remembered, I promise, with your huge smile, funny laugh and unique moves.

Fly high my angel."

Here are some other tributes left in Dan's book of condolence:

Elanor Towers: "Dan, we have fond memories of all the times we spent with you, and the crack you left in the hall wall is still there! You were such a lovely, kind and generous young man and you will be sadly missed. Thinking of your family and sending condolences. Love from the Towers family xx"

School friend Liv Goodwin posted: "Dan was such a lovely young man I have had some lovely memories of him and also with him when we were at Jo Ro together. He always had a kind heart towards me when we were together. Love Liv xx"

York celebrant Fiona Brown who led Dan's funeral service posted: "So so brave of Dan's mum to speak so openly and to think of reaching out to others, to urge them to seek help so that no other family have to suffer what she has. They are a lovely lovely family. I met Dan when I did the funeral for his nana a short while ago. Such a close knit supportive family. My heart breaks for them all. Fly high Dan, reunited with your Nan."

And a Press reader, who did not know Dan, was moved to write: "I didn't know him but its terrible the poor guy was suffering so much that he took his own life. Condolence to his family and his poor girlfriend. Twenty three is far too young to leave the world."
