Rosanna would have wanted a pink, sparkly coffin and horse & carriage. Normally I’d tell her it’s too over the top but I want to give her it

GRIEVING RELATIVES IN LIMBO

THE family of a young mum-to-be found dead in her bed could wait months to discover what killed her. Rosanna Sanderson was 14 weeks pregnant when she died at her home in Clarkston, near Glasgow, on Sunday. A post-mortem was carried out on Thursday to try to establish what caused the death of the 22-year-old, but the results were inconclusive, leaving her family in limbo. Mum Jacqueline said she could wait up to three months for answers but was now focusing on making arrangements for her daughter’s funeral. This will see her laid to rest in her favourite prom dress and her coffin carried to the crematorium in a horse-drawn carriage. Jacqueline BY SALLY HIND said: “They said it is still being treated as unexplained.

“It could take eight to 12 weeks for all of the results to come back but her body has been released to us now, which is the main thing. I just want to be with my girl.

“My next move is to plan the funeral. She would want to be the centre of attention.

“She liked to stand out and at prom she was the only person to have a really big gown so she will be buried in her prom dress with a tiara, her make-up and her big lashes. She would have wanted a pink sparkly coffin and a horse and carriage. Normally I would have been telling her it is too over the top but it’s what she would have wanted and I want to give her that.”

Hairdresser Rosanna was found dead by her mum and the father of her baby, her former partner of four years Oliver, 28, on Sunday.

She texted her mum and phoned Oliver after waking in the early hours but made no mention of feeling ill, though she had previously complained of pins and needles in her arms and sore legs.

The family had earlier been told that Rosanna had been expecting a daughter, whom she had planned to name Lilly.
