‘He was the heart and soul of the party’ tribute paid to Dundee man

The body of the man found in the grounds of Dundee International Sports Centre in Mains Loan on Monday has been identified as that of 22-year-old Robbie Low of Pitkerro Drive.

He had been reported missing, having last been seen in the Arbroath Road area about 1pm on Sunday. Police Scotland said his family are extremely upset by their sudden loss and he will be greatly missed.

There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death and, as with all sudden deaths, a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.

Robbie, who had a two-year-old son, played ice hockey for the Dundee Tigers, Dundee Stars Juniors, Comets and Ducks.

His mother Trisha, 48, said: “Everything was going great for him.

“When we left him on Saturday he was going out for a drink. Robbie was fun-loving, loud he was the heart and soul of the party, always playing pranks.”

He went to St Vincent’s Primary and St Saviour’s High schools, and went on to work with his father as a slater and roof caster labourer with Dundee City Council.
