This tribute is dedicated to Jamie Bruce, who died after falling from a bridge while out celebrating his 21st birthday.
Jamie, of St Thomas, Exeter, suffered multiple injuries when he fell from New Bridge Street onto Tudor Street, near the Exe Bridges, in St Thomas in the early hours of 20 June, 2009. He died in hospital five days later.
He was on his way home after a night out with friends in Exeter to celebrate his milestone birthday.
The former Montgomery Primary School and West Exe Technology College pupil was training to be a mechanic. His family received news after his death that he had passed his final exams.
His father, James, said: "He had the rest of his life to look forward to. He had just passed his qualifications and he didn't even know. We are so proud of him."
