Her family today released a heartbreaking tribute to the “fiercely loyal and loving wife”.
They said: “Dan was a whirlwind of a woman. She leaves a gaping hole in her family and friends’ hearts, which will never be replaced. She was an intelligent, caring and beautiful soul.
“She started her own successful laboratory business – Celtic Food Labs. Poured her heart and soul into it, but the most important things to her were her husband, family, dogs and friends.
“She was a fiercely loyal and loving wife. The best friend anyone could hope for. She met strangers and friends with the same positive, infectious and loving energy.
“She pulled you into her orbit like nobody you will ever meet or will again. A magnet that pulled us all together.”
The family continued: “Her passions were science, camping, partying with her friends and quality time with her beloved family. She was an amazing aunty and cherished every second with her nieces.
“She came from a loving family and was so close to her mum, dad, brother, aunties and uncles, her love was boundless.
“She touched so many lives. She will be so sorely missed but my word, do we all have some amazing memories that we made and cherish.
