A 29-year-old woman from the UK has died while on holiday in Albania. Rebecca Gannon died in a diving accident whilst abroad with her boyfriend. Beccie had apparently noticed something was wrong with her scuba gear and asked for it to be changed before going on the dive down to an old wreck.
Dad George said he understands she and boyfriend, Robert Per Kerans, dived in but within five minutes she came back up ‘panicking and asking for help’. An expert had reportedly jumped in to save Beccie, but she went down again. Beccie’s death certificate says she drowned.
Her body was flown from Albania back to Stone on September 27. The family now face hefty costs and are fundraising for George’s fight as he plans to head to Albania soon after his daughter’s funeral on Thursday.
