A friend told The Sun:
His family is distraught. Alex wouldn't talk down to anyone - he was friends with everybody. They are all good people. His sister Khafi spreads positivity through her YouTube account. She wakes up and prays for people at 7.30 every morning. Alex's brother is trying to get back from Australia to grieve with the rest of his family, his mum is completely devastated.
