"You have left a big hole in each and everyone of our hearts but you also touched the hearts of many others in this world.You were a good mother, daughter, sister, sister-in-law, friend to us all, you have left us with a beautiful little girl, ‘Oceanna’ - a gift from god, who reminds us of you so much," she continued.

A 16 year old girl and a 40 year old woman have been charged in connection to the assault on Ms Faulkner on March 21st.

Family and friends of Mr Faulkner shared their heartache to social media after his death.

Why god? Life is so cruel and shocking, Jason cousin, ur back with ur sister Scarlett, we will all love and miss yee forever, our hearts are in bits,” stated a post shared online.

I’m lost for words, seen this boy carrying his poor sisters coffin at her funeral and now he's gone to heaven, I’ve never seen sadder in my life,” another said.
