[T]he family of a 61-year-old woman from Morecambe, who died in a road traffic collision, have paid tribute to a loving wife, mum, sister, grandma and aunty.

At around 11.40am on Tuesday, May 16 a Kia Sorento was exiting a roundabout on Scotland Road, Carnforth when it collided with an oncoming single decker bus.

The driver of the Kia, Muriel Watson, was sadly pronounced deceased.

Muriel was a previous owner of the newsagents in the West End of Morecambe between 1989 and 1999 and she worked in SPAR on Greaves Road, Lancaster, for a number of years.

Muriel was also a keen gardener who enjoyed growing her own strawberries and tomatoes.

In a statement her family said: “Muriel will be sadly missed by us all, she was a loving, caring person who spent lots of time around family and with her young grandchildren.”
