The family of a model, who was tragically killed, has remembered him on what would have been his 50th Birthday.
Vanessa Allen, alongside her family and friends, came together to release lanterns for her brother, Nelson Asu, nearly three decades after he was left for dead in a trunk by two men, who pretended to be gay. The group gathered at Allerton Cemetery, where Nelson is buried, on Monday, October 24, to celebrate the milestone birthday.
Vanessa, who lives in Wavertree , told the ECHO : “It was very overwhelming to see everyone come out after all these years. I didn’t expect to see so many people. It was lovely to reminisce and have a drink with everyone in the pub.”
