Aidan, who worked at McDonalds, was due to start at Dundee University just days after his passing.
In a heartbreaking statement released at the time, his family said: “Aidan was treasured by his family, and well loved and respected by his friends and community.
"Aidan left Hyndland Secondary School in the summer, and was going to be moving to Dundee next Saturday to attend Dundee University.
"He created a bright future for himself and was really looking forward to these opportunities and challenges. It is very cruel that he has been robbed of his life in this way.
"The family would like to thank friends, in particular Aidan’s friends, and the wider community, for their love, support, and kindness."
