Tributes have been paid to an “inspirational and popular" Leeds man who has sadly died at the age of just 33.
Oliver Walsh, 33, from Cross Gates, was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy when he was just five years old. The progressive disorder has no cure and mainly affects boys. The disease affects the person's muscles and heart.
Elizabeth Pattinson, Oliver’s sister in law, said the family was in shock following his death. She also told LeedsLive that as his condition progressed it caused him to have heart failure after he had a chest infection.
