Three died in traffic collision

Tributes have been paid to three members of a Gedney family who died in a road traffic collision last month.

Inquests into the deaths of Paul James Carter (41), Lisa Jayne Carter (49), and Jade Channelle Mace (25), of Gedney, were opened last week by Norfolk Coroner’s Court.

Norfolk Police said all three died in a collision between a white Vauxhall Mokka and a black BMW X5 on the A47 at North Runcton near King’s Lynn on Sunday, January 15.

A man in his 30s, Aurelijus Cielevicius, of John Street, King’s Lynn, has appeared in court charged with three counts of causing death by dangerous driving.

Jade’s dad and sister posted tributes on Facebook.

Dad Jason Mace said: “It is with a heavy heart that I confirm the passing of my daughter Jade Chanelle Mace on Sunday, January 15, 2023.

“She passed away with her mum Lisa Carter and step-dad Paul Carter.

“I love her so much, am going to miss her like crazy. I now need to focus on my youngest daughter Summer who has lost her sister and best friend along with her mum and step-dad.”

Summer also said on Facebook: “RIP to the most kind, loving, caring souls.

“My beautiful, loving and caring Mumma, my best friend and absolutely extraordinary sister and the most caring, big hearted step-dad.

“There are so many words I could say about each one of them but at this difficult time, it’s hard to share them.”

The funeral is set for Friday, February 24 at Mintlyn Crematorium in King’s Lynn.
