British couple who died in Greek buggy crash were 'utterly devoted to one another'

A British couple killed after their buggy reportedly fell 200m (656ft) into a ravine on the Greek island of Santorini were "utterly devoted to one another".

Teachers Milly and Toby Savill, from Vauxhall, south London, had been driving on the Profitis Ilias mountain, the highest point on the island, when the tragedy happened on Sunday afternoon.

Authorities in Greece said firefighters were called to the area, popular with UK holidaymakers, at 2.27pm and left the scene 12 hours later.

In a tribute, Mrs Savill's father Steve Coulson, a vicar, said: "Milly and Toby were married in 2017 and were utterly devoted to one another.

"Their families are so proud of them, and although devastated, we are comforted by having shared so many wonderful times of love and joy together.

"Toby and Milly were passionate about their Christian faith, and we are being sustained by the same sure hope of Easter resurrection."

Mr Savill, 26, taught history at Ark Evelyn Grace Academy in Brixton, with staff there saying he will be "greatly missed by one and all."

Principal Tim Dainty said: "Everyone here at Evelyn Grace Academy is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Toby Savill and his wife, Milly.

"Understandably, this news has come as a real shock to us all and so we will be working with counsellors to support those staff and students who require it at this difficult time."

He added: "Toby joined our school in September 2018 as a newly qualified teacher of history and quickly established himself as a very dedicated and passionate educator.

"His enthusiasm was infectious. He had a very strong relationship with his students and was extremely well-respected by his fellow staff members.

His wife Milly, 25, worked at St Anne's Catholic primary school in Vauxhall.

Head teacher Catherine Davis said: "Mrs Savill was a dearly, much loved teacher and member of staff at St Anne's.

"Such young lives cut short when so young can't be understood, apart from maybe the belief that Milly and Toby's share of god's work had, in his eyes, been completed and he was ready to welcome them into his kingdom."

A Foreign and Commonwealth Office spokesman said: "Our staff are assisting the families of two British people who have died on the island of Santorini, and are in contact with the Greek authorities."
