I was very sorry to read of the death of Natasha Stapleton.

Natasha continued to live life as fully as she could, taking part in sporting activities at school as well as continuing with her studies in the classroom.

It is a very sad time for her family, friends and Falmer High School, whose head was instrumental in raising funds for Natasha to live the remaining months of her life in comfort.

Hopefully, the garden being set aside for tributes for Natasha could become a permanent memorial to such a brave pupil, who knew she did not have long to live but made the best of her remaining time.

Perhaps any money left in the fund raised for Natasha could be donated to benefit terminally ill children and named after Natasha in some way.
