The wake will take place in São Cosme, a half-hour drive from his home city of Porto, northern Portugal – where just two weeks ago the 28-year-old married his childhood sweetheart Rute in a Catholic service packed with family and friends. It will be followed by the funeral at 10am on Saturday.

Local priest Jose Manuel Macedo said the wake will take place at Sao Cosme Chapel before the funeral mass on Saturday morning at the Catholic church next door – the Igreja Matriz de Gondomar.
