“Lee Scott Riddell’s death is not being treated as suspicious.
“The investigation is being carried out by the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team and enquiries are ongoing.
“However, police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.”
Jane’s daughter Rachel paid tribute to the “proud and devoted grandma.”
“Mum. Where do I start…how do I speak about such an amazing women in a few words.
“Such a caring, thoughtful person – we will all be lost without you. I’d do anything to just have a single moment back.
“This definitely wasn’t your time, and I can’t believe you was just taken from us all in this way, it’s unforgivable.”
