Tragedy as TUI air hostess dies weeks after her dad

A daughter tragically lost her battle to cancer just weeks after her dad suddenly died at work, leaving her family heartbroken.

Angela Courtney, from Huyton, received the terrible news of her dad Tony's death at work while she was preparing to spend her last Christmas with her family. In January of last year, she received the devastating diagnosis after repeated visits to the doctor.

Tony, an electrician, died of a heart attack on December 14 - just three weeks before Angela lost her battle to pancreatic cancer on January 3. Angela, an air hostess for TUI, leaves behind her partner John and her six-year-old son Jonny, while Tony, 70, leaves behind his wife Christine Courtney, 68, and three children Tony, 49, Bootsy, 46, and Beverley, 43.
