They said: “We are distraught by our loss. Eva Maria, only six months old, will be missed by us all. She was our miracle, our perfect baby girl, a gift from God. She will always be in our hearts.
“We would like to thank everyone for their support at this horrific time. It has meant so much to the whole family. We would now like time to grieve and would ask to be given privacy in which to do so."
They also provided a translation into Romanian: "Suntem foarte supărați pentru pierderea noastră. Eva Maria, avea doar 6 luni si cu toții ii vom simți lipsa. Ea a fost minunea noastră, un copil perfect și un dar dat de Dumnezeu. Va fi in inimile noastre pentru totdeauna. Va mulțumim tuturor pentru susținerea voastră in aceste vremuri dificile, înseamnă foarte mult pentru noi. Am vrea acum puțin timp sa ne adunam in liniște alături de familia noastră."
The Llanelli community has also paid tribute to Eva Maria and placed flowers and teddy bears at the side of the road close to where the crash took place, with messages of love and support.
