“We had some great years and lovely memories with lots of laughter.”
“[Kelly was a] regular in pubs around Chichester and in Thursday’s nightclub and always had a great sense of humour.”
The inquest heard how the pair went to Funtington Primary School before Kelly started at Bourne Community College where she had ‘lots of friends and was always very popular’.
