The family of a young woman who died falling from a bridge have released a photograph and a written tribute to her.
Mia Fahy, from Swindon, passed away on the morning of Sunday 5 December after falling onto the M4, near Wroughton, from a bridge.
Her family have described the 19-year-old, who was a carer at Nurse Plus, as having ‘the kindest soul’ and have thanked those who have shown their support in the wake of this tragic incident.
In a tribute, they wrote: “We are absolutely heartbroken at the loss of our beautiful and wonderful girl, Mia.
“Mia was the most loving and caring person with the kindest soul and bubbly attitude.
“She cared so deeply and always showed so much compassion to everyone around her. Her passion and love for animals, especially her guinea pigs, Poppy and Pippin, and her cats, Millie and Misty, says so much about the type of person Mia was.
“We just wish that Mia knew and understood how loved and cherished she was by so many.
“We would like to thank everyone for their heartfelt support during this devastating time.
“Our lives are so much darker now without the light and sparkle of Mia. And as a family, we ask that people respect our privacy as we begin to navigate through our darkness.
“Her heart was too big for this world.”
Wiltshire Police say her death is not being treated as suspicious. An inquest is expected to take place in 2022.
