The Independent reports on the tragic loss of two schoolgirls, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, who were murdered during a violent attack at a dance class. In the wake of their killer's sentencing, their grieving families have shared memories and tributes, aiming to celebrate the individuality and spirit of their daughters. Jenni Stancombe, Elsie's mother, expressed her sorrow and honor in being her daughter's mom, emphasizing that Elsie was truly one of a kind. The incident and its aftermath underscore the need for community support in times of grief.
Everyone says it, don't they, Elsie's mother Jenni Stancombe told The Sunday Times, that they're one of a kind? But she truly was.
Ms Stancombe, 35, spoke alongside her husband David, 36, where she recalled Elise being her best friend who loved reading, using her sewing machine and cheerleading.
It was an honour to be her mum. Sometimes I think people are born special, and I genuinely believe she was.
Bebe and Elise's parents have paid tribute to them - to make sure they are remembered for their personalities - in the wake of their killer Axel Rudakubana's sentencing.
