Dozens of people have left messages of support for a "beautiful" woman's family after she died in a house fire.
Rebecca Foster, 32, was taken to hospital after a blaze broke out at her home on Delph Lane in Daresbury in the early hours of Monday, December 12. She died in hospital on Wednesday.
Her fiancé Kieran Naylor, 33, remains in a critical condition at Whiston Hospital. A Cheshire Police spokesman said an investigation into the fire is ongoing but the cause is not believed to be suspicious.

A tribute issued on behalf of Rebecca’s family said: “Rebecca was a loving and caring daughter and our lives have been absolutely torn apart by her death. She and Kieran made the perfect couple, and the pair were planning to spend the rest of their lives together, but sadly they will never be able to fulfil their dreams.
“We would like to thank everyone who tried to help Rebecca and Kieran on the night of the fire for all their efforts and would ask that we are left to grieve in peace at this difficult time.”
Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS) said five appliances from Runcorn, Lymm, Warrington, Frodsham and Widnes were called to Delph Lane in Daresbury at 12.43am on Monday, December 12.
They were supported by paramedics from North West Ambulance Service, who told the ECHO two casualties were taken to hospital, and fire service relief crews from Birchwood, Chester, Crewe and Powey Lane in addition to the aerial ladder platform from Lymm.
CFRS said the detached house was “well alight” on the ground floor, before spreading to the roof.
Firefighters remained on scene into Tuesday, damping down and monitoring for hotspots or flare-ups.
