A teenage tradie is being remembered as a “cherished son” and for his love of being on a worksite after he was killed in a freak accident on the Gold Coast.

Beau Bradford was at work on a concreting site on Monday morning when he was struck by an object that had fallen from the boom of a pump truck.

It is understood the 15-year-old died instantly.

Tributes have poured in on social media from loved ones, friends and strangers after a fundraiser was created to financially help his heartbroken family.

Alicia Downs, the creator of the GoFundMe, told news.com.au that Beau’s family had also made a selfless decision just days after his sudden death.

“His parents also made the incredibly generous decision to donate his organs, which feels so true to who he was even now – he’s helping save more lives,” she said.

In the GoFundMe, Ms Downs said Beau was not built for classrooms and that he enjoyed “real work” on a job site where he learnt new skills.

“He had a work ethic that many adults spend a lifetime trying to find, and he was so incredibly proud of the path he was carving for himself,” it read.

“We adore Beau with every part of our hearts. Nothing in this world will ever feel right without him. In this world and the next, we will find you, Beau — our souls will be together, loving the life we deserved to experience with you.”

Ms Downs went on to describe the teen as a “cherished son” to parents Amanda and Cameron, and was “adored” by his younger sister.

“His kindness, his caring heart, and his quick sense of humour could brighten any room. If you ever had the privilege of meeting Beau, you’d know that the world is a lot dimmer today without him,” the fundraiser read.

“There is no preparation for a loss like this. Our entire family is heartbroken beyond words as we try to navigate the unimaginable.

“Beau we will love you, miss you, and honour you forever. You are the greatest blessing of our lives.”

More than $90,000 has been raised as of Wednesday morning, just one day after the GoFundMe was created.

The concreting business Beau was employed with also shared a touching tribute, sharing a video of the boy on site and hanging out with his fellow tradies.

“Beau you were the heart of this crew mate you brought so much joy and laughter to us all. Your attitude, work ethic and determination for such a young lad it was so rare and impressive and we were all so proud of you,” the post read.

“We will never forget you mate we love you so much and you will forever ever be in our hearts.”

A Workplace Health and Safety Queensland spokeswoman said it is aware of the incident.

Inspectors attended the scene on Monday alongside Construction, Forestry and Maritime Employees Union officials.

Investigations are ongoing.

Police said a report will be prepared for the coroner.
