She had loads of friends and was loved by all her family,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;She&#8217;d take us under her wing; she was the one that kept us together really.

I always looked up to her as a second mum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;She would put other people before herself a lot of the time.
