Heartbroken mum mourns 'beloved angel' sons and husband after fatal M6 crash

Their father, Jaroslaw Rossa, 42, and his partner, Jade McEnroe, 33, also lost their lives in the incident. The family, from Glasgow, were travelling home from Legoland when the tragedy occurred.

Emergency services, including two air ambulances, rushed to the scene near Tebay services, but the four occupants of their Toyota were pronounced dead at the scene.

In a heartfelt statement released through Cumbria Police, Kamila, the mother of Filip and Dominic, said: "We are heartbroken at the passing of our beloved angels - Filip and Dominic.

"Filip was very intelligent, sensitive and full of love. We will never forget his smile, open arms, and the words 'tuli, tuli' (hugs, hugs)."

She added: "Dominic was always smiling, very resolute and sociable. He was extremely caring, always thinking of others first, and the first to help if someone was in trouble."

Kamila described Filip's passion for computer games and chess, and his dream of studying at the University of Glasgow. She noted Dominic's love for dinosaurs, Pokémon, and penguins. "Our lives will never be the same again," she concluded.

The collision involved a Skoda travelling southbound on the northbound carriageway of the M6.

The tragic accident occurred just after 4pm on 15 October, with emergency services rushing to the scene. A stretch of the M6 northbound between junctions 36 and 39 was closed for several hours following the collision.

Jade's parents also released a statement, saying: "Our beloved daughter Jade, you are so loved, and we will miss you every day. You are a very much-loved mummy to Arran."

Arran's father expressed gratitude, stating: "I would like to thank everyone for their kind messages, to the emergency services and the members of the public that assisted at the scene."
