The daughter of an 'inspirational' gran tragically found dead in woodland beside the M56 has paid an emotional tribute to the 'heart and soul of the family! Lillian Ferguson, 71, a grandmother to 25 and mum-of-five, had been to visit one of her daughters in County Cork, Ireland, for Christmas, when she landed back in Manchester Airport on New Year's Eve.
But instead of getting the tram back home, just a mile away in Wythenshawe, Lillian ended up walking onto the M56 slip road at junction 5. Her family believe she became confused and got lost as she tried to make her way home.
