Friends and family have taken to social media to remember the teen, with one writing: “My perfect big cousin, taken far too soon. Fly high my gorgeous.”
Another friend added: “My heart is in pieces. Never in a million years I thought I’d be writing about one of the girls, losing their precious life.
“Sophie was the weirdest, funniest, caring and amazing girl.”
