THE family of a woman who died in a two-vehicle collision near Taunton have paid a moving tribute to her.

They said Emma Louise Shirley, aged 33, from Chard, "will be greatly missed" by all who loved her.

Emma died in the collision on the A358 near Thornfalcon on the afternoon of Friday, March 24.

A man who was travelling in the black Vauxhall Corsa with her also died in the collision.

The male driver of the second vehicle – a blue Renault Megane – was taken to hospital.

In a statement released today (Friday, April 14), Emma’s family said: “She will be greatly missed by all her family, friends and loved ones.

“Emma had recently found a loving partner, become an active member in her local church and was looking forward to her future.

“We will miss that lovely smile and the chance to see where her new life would take her.”
