Kim Bell added: " I can't believe it Ross.
I've known Graeme since toddlers, and we continued going to the same schools. Whilst I lost touch after leaving high school like with many other people - I did enjoy seeing him flourish in Australia. And also the funny updates with his cat.
"When people say that they never have anything bad to say about him, it's because it's true. He was overall the nicest person you could meet and with not a bad bone in his body.
"I'm completely shocked to hear of what has happened to Graeme and my thoughts are with his parents, brother and fiancee."
