Tributes are being paid to a 'beautiful' baby girl who 'put a smile on everyone's face'.
Ella-Grace Rimington, also known as Gracie, died after falling into a garden pond in the Bainsford area of Falkirk on Thursday June, 10.
The 18-month-old was found unresponsive in the water in Dollar Avenue shortly at about 6pm.
It's understood frantic relatives attempted to save her life by administering CPR before paramedics arrived.
The tot was rushed to Forth Valley Royal Hospital under a police escort, but sadly she couldn't be saved and died a short time later.
The Record understands family members had gathered at the little one's grandparents to celebrate her mum Nicola Strathearn's birthday.
Those who knew and loved Gracie have been reacting to her death, with one posting on Facebook: "It was only the other day I saw your beautiful little smile Gracie, sleep easy little one."
Someone else wrote: "Gracie my little angel, you will always be so beautiful in all our hearts, you put a smile on everyone's face."
"Sleep tight little angel, I'll miss your cheeky little face", wrote another.
While a fourth said: "I am still in disbelief. Shine bright little beautiful Gracie. Nicola I am so sorry for your loss, I know your kids mean everything to you."
Her death isn't being treated as suspicious.
Detective Inspector Craig Faulds of Forth Valley's CID said: “This is a heart-breaking incident in which a young girl has died. The family has asked that they be given privacy at this very difficult time."
