There was standing room only in Shrewsbury Abbey as family and friends gathered to celebrate the life of the hugely popular 29-year-old on Saturday (March 1).

During a touching service mourners heard tributes from Hari's family and friends, describing a larger-than-life character whose kindness shone through.

Hari, whose full name was Hari-Josh Harris, worked as a creative media marketing assistant at Furrows in Harlescott, but had also gained a huge online following through his TikTok and Instagram accounts as 'All Things Hari' offering hints, tips and tricks for DIY and home improvements.

Hari tragically died in hospital on February 11, after falling downstairs two days earlier at his Monkmoor home.

The service, described as a celebration of Hari's life, included a host of touching - and at times funny - stories, recounting his compassion for others, his passion for fashion, musicals, extreme weather, and above all his family and friends.
