Monday, December 29, 2025 - A two-year-old girl di£d after falling into a family pond on Christmas Day.
Isobel Wallace was discovered in the water after going out
into the garden during the festive celebrations at her family’s new home in
Doncaster.
Her family attempted CPR while emergency services arrived
but the little girl was declared de@d in hospital.
In a tribute to her daughter, Isobel’s mother Tamara said
she was a "magic girl" with "adventure and fire" in her
soul.
She said: "Everyone who knows Isobel and us knows how
gifted she was and that she lived more in her two years than some children did
in a life time."
Tamara, who is pregnant with a son, said Isobel would be
"Mummy and daddy’s Christmas angel".
"We will raise her baby brother the same way and he
will know he has a sister and that she is and will continue to be
amazing," she said.
"She will always be part of us."
Launching a GoFundMe page for a memorial fairy garden,
Isobel’s aunt Abigail Maxwell called her niece a "darling angel
girl".
She wrote on the fundraiser page: "Isobel was the
happiest, smiliest, most adventurous & curious little girl. She lit up the
lives of everyone.
"Aaron, Tamara, the whole family and everyone who knows
of Isobel… all of us are absolutely heartbroken. As you can imagine, this is
the worst possible thing that could ever happen to parents, to lose their
baby.. she was so happy, so loved & they were the best parents who gave her
the most wonderful life."
Ms Maxwell added that the pond was "not there by
choice" and had fencing surrounding it while the family’s "forever
home" was being renovated.
The memorial would be a place where Isobel’s "magical
personality can be remembered and her spirit live on," she said.
