The heartbroken parents also thanked locals for sharing memories of Maisie.

Abbi added: "I can't thank the community of Looe and Polperro enough.

"The wonderful messages and shared memories have brought so much comfort in the darkest time of mine and Joe's lives.

"The thought that my amazing Maisie will forever be remembered in all your hearts brings some kind of joy to all this sorrow.

"Joe and I haven't had a chance to open all the messages because there have just been so many but we want everyone to know not one message has gone unnoticed.

"I want to say a special thank you to my family and Rachel Fletcher and Lianne Oakley - my rocks.
