'My angels': Mother pays tribute to daughter and boyfriend who both died in Manchester terror attack
A woman who lost her partner and daughter in the Manchester terror attack has hailed them as ‘my angels flying high in the sky’.
Courtney Boyle, 19, a criminology and psychology student at Leeds Beckett University, and stepfather Philip Tron, 32, were both killed when suicide bomber Salman Abedi blew himself up in the foyer of Manchester Arena as fans left an Ariana Grande concert.
In a heartfelt statement, Ms Boyle’s mother, Deborah Hutchinson, hailed her daughter as ‘stunning’.
She said: ‘My stunning amazing beautiful daughter you were my rock, you made me so proud with all you had achieved. And my gorgeous crazy Philip, you made my world a happy place and now you are both my angels flying high in the sky.’
Her father added: ‘I am going to miss my baby girl Courtney Boyle for the rest of my life. I will never forget you and I will love you forever. Grandad Bob misses you loads also.’
Paying tribute, Courtney’s sister said she was a ‘shining yellow star in the sky’, and remembered Mr Tron as ‘my Costa buddy’.
Her boyfriend also described her as his ‘soulmate’.
He said: ‘My Courtney was an adventurer, a precious and joyous soul. She made people feel loved and feel safe. She was a soulmate, a friend, a daughter and a sister. No one had what that lass had, she was like no other.
‘And she was on a path to fulfilment, and was happy when she passed. Nobody has ever made me as happy as her and I’m the person I am today because of her.’
Other tributes came from Mr Tron’s mother, who thanked the emergency services, her family and friends and the people of Manchester.

She said: ‘Our most amazing son, partner, brother, father, uncle, nephew and cousin, Philip Tron, sadly passed away on the 22nd May 2017. Philip was such a fun-loving, energetic soul, he would light up the darkest room and lift your spirits with his infectious laugh, witty sense of humour and his beautiful smile.
‘Words cannot express the huge void his passing has left in all our lives.’
