Mum pays heartfelt tribute after West Lothian couple found dead in their tent while camping
A West Lothian mother has paid tribute to a couple from the area who were found dead in their tent while camping near a loch in Argyll and Bute.
The bodies of Adele Tait, 47, and her partner Craig, 55, were discovered by police officers near Loch Awe in Dalmally last weekend, after worried relatives raised the alarm.
Police say they are not treating the tragic couple’s deaths as suspicious. According to the Sun, it is understood the pair died as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Adele’s mum Anne Murdoch paid tribute to her ‘dellbell” in an emotional post on her Facebook page earlier this week.
She said: “I am devastated to be writing this, my eldest daughter Adele and her partner Craig have sadly passed away. The family are heartbroken at this time. You are my firstborn the one that made me a mum, you’re back with Bradley and Alicia.
“I am in pieces, another part of my heart is in heaven, till we are together again, love you with all all my heart delbell. You don’t realise how much you miss the texts and messages at 6 am, until the person is no longer here. Love and miss you.
“Please be patient while our family grieve we will get back to people in time.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Around 4.25pm on Saturday, June 7, a 55-year-old man and 47-year-old woman were found deceased within a tent on the east side of Loch Awe, Dalmally, Argyll & Bute.
"Their deaths are not being treated as suspicious. A report was submitted to the Procurator Fiscal."
