Dawn McGurty hopes Jake Rainton, who died lasy July after a day out with his girlfriend, will still come home.
A mum has said she still makes her son's bed every day in the hope he'll come home - nine months after he died of a single punch in an unprovoked attack.
"There is a takeaway pizza box and a bottle of pop. His clothes are all there. I change the bed, every week, just as I always did, kidding myself that one day he might come home. I just cannot bear to accept that he has gone. "In his teens, he had a job at a stable yard and he started showjumping. He worked in a factory too, but it was his dream to own his own yard, training horses. He didn’t go out much, he wasn’t a big drinker or a party animal.
Dawn, who works as a manager in rapid response, said: "He sent me a photo of himself in a checked shirt and he was in such good spirits. Later in the evening he had tickets for a bar, which he said he didn’t really fancy. But he went along in the end." "It destroyed me and I will never forget it." Jake was carried to his funeral in a horse and carriage, dressed in the colours of Leeds United, his favourite team. He had a bouquet of flowers in the shape of a horse.
