Family pays tribute following death at hotel in Surrey

The family of Samantha Mickleburgh, from Axminister, have paid tribute to her today, following her death at a hotel in Bagshot, Surrey, on Sunday 14 April.

In a statement they said:

“We are devastated by the loss of Samantha, an incredible mother, beautiful, much cherished daughter, and friend.

“Loved by many, she was a true example of class, integrity, and dedication to those around her.  Lighting up any room she entered with her vivacious personality and endearing smile.

“No words can truly capture all her beloved qualities and nothing will ever fill the hole left in the lives of those who loved her.”

Her two children said:

“Nothing can prepare you to face the world without your parents at a young age. Our mother had been both parents to us since the loss of our father and she was doing such an amazing job at it. No finer example of a Mum could there be, we will feel the loss in every aspect of our lives.

“We are grateful to be such a close family and for the support we continue to receive from those who knew Samantha.

“We as a family wish for privacy at this impossibly difficult time.”
