Ella’s family have paid tribute to her, and said: “No words can ever express the sorrow and heartbreak we feel as we try to come to terms with the untimely and tragic loss of our beautiful, selfless daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece and cousin. Our kind, funny girl, with the biggest heart, who always put everyone else before herself. “A tragic loss to our family and the many friends whose lives she touched, she leaves a hole that can never, ever be filled. “Forever young, forever beautiful, forever in our hearts.’ Aimee’s family has issued the following tribute: “Our beautiful Aimee, our angel, such a unique and amazingly gifted soul who always had time and patience for anybody, destined for great things, but taken far too soon. “She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and we as a family are left bereft”.
