‘Apparently this virus attacks the heart. If he didn’t have the heart problem it would have just been a cough or a cold that would usually be fine but because of this heart condition.’ Mr Brooke said: ‘The family is going to be struggling so as a community the only thing we could do was help towards the funeral but never in my wildest dreams did I think it would go like that. Everyone has come together.’
