On the fundraising page, Greggs Step Mam Jessica Harrison, said: “Gregg Lewis was snatched away from us at no age at all, just 13 years old after being knocked off his pushbike in a tragic incident.
“We received the devastating phone call that no parent wants to witness and after putting up a huge fight for two days, we lost him where he was surrounded by eternal love from all those close to him. He was the best son, brother, cousin, nephew, grandson and all in all a lovable caring friend."
