TRIBUTES have been paid to a “much-loved” mother of three who died following a crash which also claimed the life of another woman.
The collision happened on the A98, close to Enzie near Buckie in Moray, at around 12.30pm on Tuesday June 10 and involved a Vauxhall Insignia and a Peugeot 2008.
Police said Amanda Lawson, 32, from Mosstodloch, who was driving the Vauxhall, died at the scene.
Janet Cowie, 77, from Buckie, a passenger in the Peugeot, also died at the scene.
The family of Lawson paid tribute to her in a statement issued through Police Scotland.
They said: “Amanda was a much-loved partner and mother to three young boys.
“She will be sorely missed by family and friends. We would ask that our privacy is respected at this time and we and her young family are allowed to grieve.”
The driver of the Peugeot, a 77-year-old man, was taken by air ambulance to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary with serious injuries and remains there undergoing treatment.
Police are appealing for information about the crash.
