The heartbroken family of a young soldier who died suddenly have paid tribute to the 19-year-old who "would light up the room".
Gunner Jaysley-Louise Beck was tragically found dead at the military base in Larkhill, Wiltshire, on December 15, YorkshireLive reports.
The army has launched an investigation into her death.
Jaysley had completed her initial training at the Army Foundation College in Harrogate, Yorkshire, before continuing her military career at Larkhill in 2020.
Her family, who run the Manor House Hotel, in Oxen Park, near Ulverston, have described the young woman as loving and caring.

In a tribute sent to YorkshireLive, they said: "Jaysley is a loving and caring person who would go above and beyond to help anyone in a less fortunate position than herself.
"If there is ever a person who needs help, you could always count on Jaze to be there.
"Her compassion for others and her ability to light up the room putting a smile on anybody's face is immeasurable."
As part of Jaysley’s legacy, her family is kindly asking for donations to The Principle Trust Children's Charity.
"We believe this charity radiates the kind of positivity that Jaysley always had helping give children their dreams back," said the family.
"100 per cent of every £1 raised by the charity goes towards helping provide free holidays to underprivileged, disadvantaged and disabled children from across Yorkshire."
They added: "A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered."
The Army has confirmed an investigation into Jaysley's death is underway.
A spokesperson said: “It was with sadness that we confirmed the death of Gunner Jaysley-Louise Beck at Larkhill in December 2021.
“As there are ongoing investigations, it would be inappropriate to comment further, but any death is a tragedy and our sympathies remain with the families and friends of those affected.”
