THE family of a young Cilgerran mum who was killed in a collision on Saturday have described her as a larger-than-life character who lit up the room.
This evening her family has paid tribute to her, saying: “It is with great sadness that we announce our beautiful daughter Sophie has been tragically taken from us.
“Sophie was a devoted mum to her beautiful son, a cherished daughter, much loved sister and auntie and will be deeply missed by everyone.
“Anyone who knew Sophie knows that she was a larger-than-life character who lit up the room wherever she went with her craziness. She was the life and soul of the party and an inspiration to so many people.
“Thank you to everyone who has reached out with messages of condolences and support. We are absolutely heartbroken, and it has meant so much to the whole family.
We would now like time to grieve and would ask to be given privacy in which to do so.”
