Three days after Lucy Leahy, 23, died in a horrific disaster on the A509 between Bozeat and Wollaston, Northants, her family learns that her daughter passed the much-awaited exam.
A woman who was killed in a horrific vehicle accident while returning from her “dream job” has left a memorial for their “cherished daughter.” Her family is in mourning.
On November 24, at about 630 p.m., Lucy Leahy, 23, lost her life in a three-vehicle crash on the A509 between Bozeat and Wollaston, Northants. The trainee chartered accountant was struck head-on by a car on the way to her residence in Irthlingborough, Northants., where she shared a property with her partner.
According to the police, a Ford Ranger pickup struck a Ford Mondeo that was traveling in the same direction as Lucy when it was moving in the opposite direction. Lucy was fatally injured when the vehicle crashed into her Citroen.
Lucy had prepared for five years to pass her final Chartered Accountancy exam, and it was confirmed three days after her death. Her two older sisters and twin sister have shared their anguish in a heartfelt message, together with the rest of her bereaved family.
Claire Shakespeare, her mother, posted on Facebook: “We are all inconsolable over this tremendous loss and respectfully ask for privacy while we grieve Lucy’s premature departure and attempt to come to terms with the loss of our beloved daughter, sister, and companion. Lucy was looking forward to hearing that she cleared her last exam to become a chartered accountant. It was verified that this noteworthy achievement occurred only three days following her passing. We were really excited to celebrate this accomplishment, which brought an end to Lucy’s difficult five-year path to become a Chartered Accountant.”
