Coedely crash victim’s sister describes driving as ‘too daunting’

The night of the crash is still vivid in Natalie’s mind.

There are memories of the family driving the 15-minute journey to the scene, after receiving a phone call from a friend who lived nearby.

“She told me the car was in half and I just remember praying, all the way to Coedely,” she said.

“Just praying ‘let Callum be OK – just let him be OK’.”

Although they were told at the scene Callum had died, Natalie said she did not take it in until later.

“Our world just crumbled,” she said.

“I do feel when we lost Callum we lost a part of ourselves – I am not the person I used to be, my husband is not the same person.

“There is a huge void that will never, ever be filled.”
