A tribute issued on behalf of Ferne’s parents, Peter and Ondine Campbell reads: “As Ferne’s parents, we wish to pay tribute to our only child: Our beautiful, vibrant and loving daughter.

“She was our life and we were, and still are, immensely proud of her.

“We ask that any parent reading these words will hold their child when next they see them and tell them how much they are loved.”
