Tearful friends and family turned out in their hundreds at the funeral of Luke Edgington, the teenager who died in a car accident on Sunday, June 1.

Dad Colin, 46, said he 'couldn't believe' how many people turned up at All Saints' Church in Bisham on Tuesday and that about 500 mourners crammed into the building to bid farewell to the young tree surgeon.

In a poignant last tribute to Luke, former workmates ot he 19-year-old hoisted a timber crane outside the church with a banner saying 'Luke's gone but not forgotten'.

The former Furze Platt senior school pupil died after his white Peugeot was in collision with another car in Furze Platt road at about 1.30am.
