The family of a talented teenage girl has expressed heartfelt sentiments following her tragic passing at their residence. Adriana Retyte, aged 14, passed away two days after emergency responders were called to their home in Ashwellthorpe, Norfolk, on May 8. Despite receiving CPR at the scene, Adriana was later pronounced dead at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.
