A two-year-old girl was killed when she was struck by a car at a glamping site in Norfolk, and her grieving mother has paid homage to her ‘beautiful’ daughter, saying, “I loved her from the start.”On Friday, a motorist hit Isabella Tucker at Horsley Hale Farm in Littleport, Norfolk, and she later died from her injuries.The arrest of a 42-year-old lady on suspicion of causing a fatality through negligent or inconsiderate driving has been confirmed by police.
Grieving mother Vaiida Sprainyte referred to her daughter as “a beautiful daughter and little sister” in her eulogy.You made me forget to breathe, made me forget to beat.My dear little girl, you are a piece of me. To love you is a breeze. I fell in love with you at first sight and I never plan on letting go.One of Ms. Sprainyte’s friends responded to her message with words of encouragement.That person texted me, “Sending you lots of love hunni.”The lady detained in connection with the incident has been bailed and will return to Thorpe Wood Police Station in Peterborough on November 24.Owner Stuart Hatton told MailOnline that his crew was devastated by Isabella’s passing and that they would be planting a tree in her memory.He expressed his deep sorrow at Isabella Tucker’s death, saying, “We are absolutely heartbroken at the loss of Isabella Tucker who tragically died after an incident at Horsley Hale Farm on Friday, 25th August.”Our hearts go out to her and her loved ones at this time, and please accept our sincere sympathies.
The workers on duty that night could not have done more to handle the emergency, and they deserve our highest praise.We’d also want to extend our gratitude to the guests who are skilled in medicine and provided immediate first aid, allowing the staff at Horsley Hale Farm to tend to loved ones and other visitors until the emergency services arrived.Together with our guests, we have established a fund to purchase and plant a tree in Isabella’s honor.
