THE mum of a teenager killed after being hit by a car has spoken out after the driver was sentenced to eight years.

Vicky Simpson, the mother of Liam Simpson, 18, of Greenfield, said: “There will never be enough justice for what Daniel Beck has taken from us. We will miss Liam forever and my broken heart will never mend.

“I will forever be grateful to the Holywell community for all the support and kindness they showed me and my family. Without the generous donations we would never have been able to give Liam the send-off he deserved.

“I was overwhelmed by the support we were shown. I am extremely proud of Liam’s friends and thankful to Holywell Football Club for making the Liam Simpson suite a lovely memorial. Knowing he will always hold a special place at HFC and continue to inspire others with his values brings me so much comfort.”

Daniel Michael Beck, of Y Gerddi in Maes Pennant, Mostyn, admitted causing death by dangerous driving.

Liam Simpson was killed on September 30 last year.
