The family of a woman who died following a collision on the A596 at Flimby have paid tribute to her life.
Bethanie Clark, 31, and David Muir, 43, of Parton, were killed on Sunday, May 15.
The collision happened at 12.08am and involved a Nissan Qashqai. The pair were pedestrians.
Her mother said: “My daughter Bethanie struggled with her mental health and addiction for years, yet was one in a million, her heart was immense, and she was the most caring person anyone could meet. She put everyone and everything before herself.
“She had a great love for animals and her passion was her dogs, Pippa, Bobs and Chloe, but this love did not compare to the love she had for son Harry, he was her world, and she will live on in him.”
Her tribute continued:
Rossiter W Raymond wrote
Life is eternal,
Love is immortal,
Death is only a horizon.
To my darling Bessie, tragically taken from us too soon.
We love you; we will miss you immensely.
You are the star that shines and sparkles bright in the night sky.
Until you are in our arms again all our love Mam and Harry XXXX
Her dad’s tribute said: “It is with great sadness we are writing this, following the loss of my daughter Bethanie.
“Words and times we can no longer share, but in my heart you will always be there.
“Rest peacefully now,
“Lots of love, Dad and Declan XXX.”
