Family's tribute to fatal crash victim
- Published
A woman who died following a crash in South Yorkshire has been named as 54-year-old Deborah Girgis.
The grey Peugeot Ms Girgis was driving was involved in a collision with a white Vauxhall van on the Haigh roundabout at about 11:10 BST on 25 October. She died later in hospital.
The van's driver, a 29-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of driving while unfit and causing death by dangerous driving and had since been released on bail, according to South Yorkshire Police.
In a statement, Ms Girgis' family described her as "a beloved mother, wife and sister", adding that "she put everyone else first and asked for very little in return".
"Losing her so unexpectedly has been a hammer blow to our family and left a hole that can never be filled," they said.
South Yorkshire Police appealed for anyone who saw what happened, or who had footage of the vehicles involved before the crash on the roundabout near Junction 38 of the M1, to get in touch.
