Morgan's family said they will remember him as loving the simple things in life.
"He volunteered for a number of things including working at the local Cancer Research shop," they said.
"He always had a smile for everyone and brightened up the classroom with his humour."
Connor's family thanked the staff at Antrim Area Hospital, paramedics, ambulance staff, PSNI and members of public who helped him.
Lauren was described by her family as a "very thoughtful and caring young girl who was outgoing and fun loving".
Michael McElhatton, 52, who owns the Greenvale Hotel, was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. He has since been bailed and will return for further questioning in future, police said.
A 40-year-old man remained in police custody for questioning on Thursday night.
