A “BEAUTIFUL” and “kind” little girl will soon be laid to rest after the youngster, aged just 10, tragically died last weekend.

The community has been rocked by the heartbreak of the “wonderful” girl, with dozens of emotional tributes across the county being paid to her, including Shelmalier Ladies Football Club.
