Mourners asked to wear bright colours to funeral of tragic Lanarkshire schoolgirl

The heartbroken mother of a Cumbernauld schoolgirl who died from an asthma attack has asked mourners to wear bright colours to her funeral.

Tracy Bulpitt said she had lost her “precious angel” in 12-year-old Katy.

And she has now requested mourners wear pink or purple in tribute to her at St Joseph’s Church on Wednesday. The mum-of-six also revealed that her father, Robert Speirs, had died on Tuesday aged 71.

The funeral Mass will take place at 10am in St Joseph’s, followed by burial at ­Eastfield Cemetery.

There will be a gathering at the Burroughs social club and Tracy advised: “Anyone wishing to attend is welcome and we request attendees wear something pink or purple.”
