A hero dad who ran into a burning house to save his son has been buried with his little boy so he could ”forever hold him in his arms’.

Brave Barry Mason, 45, tragically lost his life after he raced into a blazing terraced property to rescue his son Ethan, four, on April 14.

Ethan was rushed to hospital after the fire broke out in Wigan, where he was placed in an induced coma but he died on April 16.

The pair were laid to rest together and the youngster’s aunt Jessica Causer says they have been buried in the same coffin, cuddling each other.

She said: “Barry and Ethan were put to rest together with Barry forever holding Ethan in his arms.”

A Go Fund Me page, that’s raised over £60,000, was set up to support the family and people have paid tribute to the ‘amazing’ father and son duo on there.
