CROWDS attended the funeral of a Beckenham woman who died after a car accident involving a fire engine on an emergency call.
Donna Stepney, 28, was pregnant with her first child when the accident took place in Croydon and was due to get married next year.
Her family and friends packed out the South London Crematorium and her parents Kay and Terry opened their house in Wickham Way to more than 200 mourners.
Donna's 26-year-old brother Daniel and godfather Eric Kimber were among those who gave moving speeches at the ceremony.
Terry Stepney, 53, said: "We were overwhelmed by the presence of so many family and friends who have been so supportive.
"We sorted through more than 200 floral tributes and were very moved."
