Family’s tribute to Barnaby

THE family of four-year-old Barnaby Cork, who was fatally injured in a collison with a car in Thame on Saturday (December 10), have issued the following statement:

“We’re truly devastated at the loss of our precious Barnaby and we’re absolutely heartbroken that he’s gone to heaven before he was ready.

“There’s no words that can even begin to describe the sadness we’re experiencing now that Barnaby isn’t with us. He was our world.

“We are so very, very lucky to have such close and strong family as well as such great friends and neighbours and your support means everything to us.

“We know that the people of Thame have us in their thoughts and prayers and this gives us strength when we need it the most.

“We would like to thank you all for your support and for respecting our privacy at this time.”

Barnaby died after colliding with a car in the car park of Thame Leisure Centre, despite the efforts of the emergency services.
