Luke Davies’ heartbroken mother has broken her silence by paying a moving tribute to her murdered son.
Sandy Davies publicly acknowledged her son’s alleged murder for the first time by changing her Facebook profile photo to a sweet photo of the couple.
The mother and son are seen grinning with their arms around each other in the photo from happier times, which has since been flooded with comments from loved ones.
Ms Davies also changed her cover photo to an announcement that Qantas would dedicate its Mardi Gras float to her flight attendant son on Saturday evening.
“He will be there in spirit,” someone commented on the photo.
Mrs Davies’ tribute came as the four words she heard during a triple-zero call from her son’s phone on the morning he was allegedly murdered at friend Jesse Baird’s home in Paddington were detailed in a police document .

Mr Davies, 29, and Mr Baird, 29, had spent the night before their alleged murders partying in Surry Hills before returning to Mr Baird’s $2.5 million rental.
Police allege NSW Police Officer Beau Lamarre-Condon arrived at the mansion armed with his police-issue Glock on the morning of February 19.
He is said to have shot Mr Baird and Mr Davies at around 9.50am.
A triple zero operator answering a call from Mr Davies heard a man shouting ‘Go away, f*** off’ before the call was suddenly disconnected, police documents claim.
The operator attempted to contact Mr Davies twice, but both calls went unanswered.
Earlier on Friday, one of Davies’ close friends revealed he had received a message from the flight attendant just 20 minutes before his death.
“We used to send each other funny Instagram memes back and forth and so I received one at 9:18 a.m. the morning of the incident, and it was a funny Instagram meme, followed by a crying laughing emoji, which was kind of is what Luke was like,” close friend Dean Bailey told Sunrise.
“You could imagine him physically laughing as he sent that message.
“To know that within thirty minutes of that, things took a turn for the worse and the unimaginable happened, it’s heartbreaking to think what happened with that message he sent me and what happened next in the thirty minutes that followed.”

Their alleged killer is said to have hired a white rental van to transport their bodies to a remote farm in Bungonia, about 180km south-west of Sydney.
It is alleged he then returned to the site to move the bodies to another location in Bungonia, about a 20-minute drive away.
Meanwhile, hundreds of people gathered to remember Mr Baird and Mr Davies at a silent vigil in Sydney on the eve of Mardi Gras celebrations on Friday.
The couple are expected to appear on several floats on Saturday evening as revelers take over Oxford Street – not far from where they were allegedly murdered.
Lamarre-Condon, who has been charged with two counts of murder, is currently in Silverwater Correctional Complex, in Sydney’s west.
