The family of a woman who died in hospital 15 days after a crash in Aberdeen have described her as “one of the sweetest and kindest” people.
Maureen Davidson, 83, was a pedestrian involved in a collision with a car on Whinhill Road at around 11.20am on Friday, December 6.
She was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary where she died on Saturday, December 21.
Her family released a statement saying they are “devastated” by the loss of their “lovely” mother and grandma.
They said: “Before the accident she was in great health and lived independently with a buzzing social life and a popular lady enjoying meals out with her friends, bingo and dancing.
“On the day it happened, she had just been to her line dancing class and was away out to town expecting to return for Zumba at 3pm.”
Granddaughter’s tribute to Maureen Davidson
Mrs Davidson’s granddaughter said she will be “forever grateful” to have had her in her life.
“For those that haven’t met her, my grandma is one of the sweetest, kindest and most resilient people you could ever meet,” she wrote.
“She was also very funny and had a great sense of humour and outlook on life. She was like a parent to me, and I’m forever grateful to have had her in my life.
“The family would like to thank our friends and relatives who have offered us so much kindness and support throughout the last fortnight.”
