A heartbroken mum whose son died in a quarry has opened up about the impact it has had on her and her family following the recent death of another teenager last week.
Diane Fowler, from Norris Green, lost her 14-year-old son Sam in September 1999 at Hilldale Quarry in Parbold when he went out for the day with his friends. The 65-year-old mum has now spoken about how her family has never recovered from the loss.
She was told Sam got into difficulty and then disappeared underwater, with the teen's body later being found by the police underwater search team. Sam was a pupil at West Derby Comprehensive School with the schoolboy being gifted both academically and as a footballer, with him having trials at both Liverpool and Everton.
