It clearly states the police are trying to identify the lady?

It still seems like a bad dream that Mums (Yvonne) is gone..

To the person asking, they do identify people and tell their families.

The hospital she was in at Rochford have A LOT to answer for and the way the staff treated her!

We had not even been told she was missing, then we were spoken to in an absolutely appalling manner when we asked.

Sad times.

He was quite correct in what he said.

"......A cordon has been set up around the scene while officers try to identify the woman and investigate the circumstances surrounding her death....."

Your comment was the insensitive one.

To write Raven88, I'm sure the family of the lady is aware of this before the Evening Echo is.

You would have to be a bit simple minded to believe the Evening Echo is all knowing!

How come so many on here are naming her as " yvonne" when the article says that the police are still trying to identify this woman?
Answers please!

Apparently trolls don’t just live under bridges..

The police notified us (the family) that it was Yvonne that was found, I’m certain there was only once incident of a lady being found on the beach passed away on that day.

I see very little reason for this apparently pointless argument, I’m sure you all do have mothers?

Thank you to everyone else paying their respects and sending us kind wishes at this time.

I'm sorry if anyone found my comment offensive, although for the life of me I can't see why. As it was aimed at the silly comment made by a previous post.

No real need to complain to the Echo though.

l see no one has come up with an answer to a perfectly logical question, yet stupidly some have given the down vote.
