Jordan Williams was 20 years old and an inpatient at the mental health unit in the Kalgoorlie Health Campus when he died.
Four years later, his uncle's eyes well up as he runs his hand along his nephew's headstone and remembers his infectious smile.
"He got into mischief like every other kid," Ben Williams said.
"You could tell him off and he'd come back smiling and five minutes later."
The coroner investigating Jordan's death heard conditions in the mental health unit were so poor that visiting staff vowed to never return.
