A SCHOOLBOY who died after falling from a roundabout at a playground “made every day worth living", his family said last night.

- BY IAN LEONARD

Logan Carter, 12, died at the scene on Friday evening.

His family said yesterday: “Logan was a much-loved son, brother, grandson, great grandson, cousin and friend to many. He had an infectious personality and a beautiful smile.

“Everyone wanted to be where Logan was. He was a little boy who was so full of life and wanted to make everyone laugh. He made every day worth living.

“Logan was everyone's therapy person, their calm, and he will be missed more than we can ever put into words. We are taking comfort from the words of support we have received whilst we take time to come to terms with the loss of our blue-eyed boy.”

Emergency services were called shortly after 6pm to Wharton Recreation Ground in Winsford, Cheshire, but Logan could not be saved.
