said: 鈥淪he was my beautiful, funny and utterly brilliant partner-in-crime for more than 11 years, and words will never be able to express how much I am going to miss her.
鈥淚 know that her family, friends and colleagues are all feeling the same way.
鈥淚t will be some time before we understand the exact cause, however all the indications are that it was extremely quick and that she would not have suffered. We can at least take a little comfort in that.
鈥淢el put so much time, care and attention into creating the content for her blog. I know because I watched her do it over countless evenings and weekends. She just believed so passionately in creating a better built environment and in making a nicer place for us all to share.
鈥淪he built an incredible army of followers on Twitter, where I know she will be missed by a great many. I know she had a real bond with so many people she鈥檇 never met in person, and used to love it when they came up and introduced themselves at events.
鈥淢el was such an amazing person, and for so many different reasons.
鈥淪he was the most supportive and wonderful partner I could have ever hoped for and she will be sorely missed by all our family and friends.
鈥淢el鈥檚 funeral will be taking place in her home town of Ballycastle, Northern Ireland as soon as all the necessary formalities have been completed.鈥
