A DEVASTATED mum today paid tribute to her “sensitive and loving” son.
Anthony Healy was killed after he was hit by a van in Broadshade Road, Westhill, on Friday morning.
His heartbroken mother, Frances, said the nine-year-old, who once aspired to be an astronaut, had his whole life before him.
She said: “My boy Anthony was sensitive, loving, and soft-natured; always willing to help anyone.
“He had plenty of friends and is missed by all of them.”
