They said: “Mateusz was a much-loved son and brother and will be missed by all who knew him.
“He was taken before his time at a young age of 28 years old and now he will never be able to have the family he wanted to have. He had his whole life ahead of him.
“We are devastated beyond words and are struggling to accept that he is no longer with us.”
