Grieving partner's mission after suicide tragedy
A WOMAN has spoken about the heartbreaking moment that she found her partner dead after they enjoyed the Radio One Big Week end in Liverpool together last month.
Lisa Carol Pratt, 33 from Haydock, had travelled to Sefton Park with Richard Scriven - her partner for nearly four years - for the music festival on Friday May 24. Tragically, the next day she found him dead at his home, having taken his own life.
Lisa is now trying to keep Richard’s memory alive and has sent a special bottle with a message and a picture of them together into the sea at Blackpool, one of the couple's favourite places, where they had their first date.
