Coun David Ashby, district councillor for Spalding St Paul’s ward since 2011, described the pair’s deaths as a “body blow” but added that the area had “lovely people” living in it who he would stand by.

“I didn’t know Mrs Edwards that well but it’s a shocking thing to have happened,” Coun Ashby said.

“I’m devastated and it’s a body blow that I just can’t comprehend because there are a lot of lovely people in St Paul’s ward.

“But I know people will come together and I’ll support anyone who knows the family, as well as Mrs Edwards’ family directly.”
