“Fly high precious angel and know you will always be loved, until we meet again baby girl.”
While Harold Illeker and Sons Ltd funeral directors said: “She loved music, festival’s, concerts, making TikToks, taking selfies and spending time with family and friends.
“She leaves her mum Kerry and her partner Rob, dad Paul and his partner Shala, sister Ella, brother Tommy, and boyfriend Taylor Benson.
