MUM Lyn Rigby last night paid tribute to the Angels of Woolwich who tried to help her murdered son Lee 10 years ago today.
Soldier Lee was savagely hacked to death by two jihadi extremists as he walked home to Woolwich Barracks in South East London on May 22, 2013.
It was a crime that shocked the world but Amanda Donnelly, Tina Nimmo and Ingrid Loyau-Kennett stood out that day for their heroism.
Amanda lay down beside Lee and wrapped her arms around him to bring him comfort, while Tina put herself in front of traffic to shield the fusilier from being run over.
Ingrid, a mother-of-two from Cornwall, got off a bus and confronted the killers for 10 minutes until armed police arrived, telling the pair that they would never win their jihadi war.
Lyn said: "The Angels of Woolwich stepped up for my son in a way I will never be able repay.
