Meanwhile, shocked friends of Helen began leaving tributes to her on a website set up in her memory on social networking site facebook.
Emma Coley, who set up the ‘In loving memory of Helen Findlay’ wrote: “I’ll never forget you, and as I write this message I’m crying my eyes out, with happy memories of you, and sad thoughts I’ll never see you again.
“Sleep well HelzBellz, I miss you already, I love you lots, and I promise we will all look after your babies, and let them know what a wonderful women you were, and how you’re a beautiful angel in the sky.”
Jenny Dowling added: “What a great loss to everyone that knew you. So many stories and so many memories. I know you will be looking down on us from up there with the angels.”
