Let's light up Lynn for Lee. That's the call from friends of a 37-year-old financial advisor who was found dead at his home in the town.

Lee Calton was a popular figure in King's Lynn and a staunch Linnets supporter. King's Lynn Town paid tribute to Mr Calton, who had followed them for more than 25 years.

Mark Hearle, the club's general manager said: "He was very well known, very well liked and very well respected."

Family friend Shannon Bloy is calling on people who knew Mr Calton to light a candle to remember him at 8pm on Thursday. She also hopes that the King's Lynn Corn Exchange will be lit up in his favourite team's colours - yellow and blue.

"I've shared a post on Facebook which has had more than 400 shares," she said. "It goes to show the kind of bloke he was.

"He was just such a lovely guy, he lit up the room with his smile, it's just such a shame."

Mrs Bloy, 31, said she had also shared links to the Samaritans and MIND, to spread awareness of mental health issues.

An inquest into Mr Calton's death was opened at Norwich Coroners Court on Tuesday, April 20.

Area coroner Yvonne Blake said he was declared dead at his home in St George's Avenue, King's Lynn, on Thursday, April 15. She adjourned the inquest for a full hearing in Norwich on July 30.
