Edinburgh mum Gillian Neill, 52, sadly passed away at home last week after a short illness.
Tributes have poured in for a 'one of a kind' Scots mum who died suddenly, days before Christmas. Heartbroken family and freinds of Gillian Neill, 52, from Edinburgh reacted after the mum-of-three died at home on Sunday, December 18.
She said: "She was a bit ill beforehand but it was just unexpected, she was only 52. She died at home in bed. She was cuddled into the dog. She brought up me and my two sisters and was one of the strongest women ever. "She would always take in all our friends and she would treat them like her own. She was truly one of a kind."
