Hide AdA Gofundme page has been set up to help pay for his funeral, with any money left over being set aside for Aidrianna.
Cecelia added: “He was an amazing dad.
"We always used to say I’m bad cop and he’s good cop because if I said no she would go running to her dad and he would say yes and go ‘come on lets go the toy shop’.
"She is such a daddy’s girl.
"Any money raised will be for him to celebrate his life and then anything left over will go into a savings account for our daughter when she’s older.
"It was his birthday on April 20 so we all did a balloon release and celebrated for him there.”
