Family pays tribute to Mark Campbell





Mr Campbell died following an incident on June 19 - the day before his 43rd birthday.
A post mortem revealed that he died from bleeding to the brain.
A man has been charged with the murder of the father-of-five.
A statement issued by Mr Campbell’s family said: "The sudden and senseless loss of Mark Campbell has devastated the loved ones he has left behind. Mark was a loving father, brother and uncle with a big heart and a generous nature and his death is hard to understand.
“Words cannot describe the heartache and pain we feel right now, nor the sadness that we never had the chance to say goodbye. We take comfort knowing you are now at peace and you will be forever in our hearts. Your family loved you as much as you did them, and your memory will live on through them.”
The man accused of the murder of Mr Campbell appeared in Reading Crown Court last week.
Simon Velvick, aged 41, of Newtown Road Newbury, was remanded in custody and will appear before the court again on September 16.
Four other people arrested in connection with the death have been released on bail.
A 42-year-old woman and a 48-year-old man, arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender, have been bailed until July 22.
A 19-year-old man, arrested on suspicion of the same offence, has been bailed until July 19.
Another man, aged 20, arrested on suspicion of affray, has been bailed until July 18.
Police are urging anyone with any information to contact Det Ch Insp Hunter on the non-emergency 101 number.
