Jack's heartbroken mum described her wee boy as 'the light of her life'
Thousands of pounds have been raised in memory of Scots schoolboy Jack Stewart after his sudden death aged six. The young footballer, from Dundee, sadly passed away on Sunday, May 7.
A statement from Dundee West FC reads: "All at Dundee West were devastated to learn of the sudden passing of Jack Stewart on Sunday, May 7. Jack, aged six, joined Dundee West as a Wee Westies player at age of three. "Jack was a popular member of the 2016s squad and Dundee West was a massive part of Jack's life. Jack's Dad, Ian, also supported his son and the 2016s team by volunteering to help Jack and his teammates as well as coaching and general help of the team.
"Longer term we will look to pay tribute to Jack in fitting ways which will keep Jack as part of the Dundee West Family. We would appreciate any donation which can be contributed towards the support of Jack's family at this time and as a longer lasting tribute of the families choice."
