Family's agony as mum, 31, 'who would do anything for anybody' tragically dies
A mother has shared her agony after losing her 31-year-old daughter who she described as "beautiful, supporting and loving."
Louise Lewis says her daughter Cally Ann Ahearne was the kind of person who was ready to help anybody. Now, Louise has launched a fundraising page for Cally's daughter Lainee so she has the best chance of a "bright future."
Louise said she wanted people to remember her daughter as the brave and kind person that she was. In August 2022, Cally spoke candidly about her experience of losing her “precious” baby boy Junior Jack Ahearne. After being told that her unborn baby son would not stand a chance of survival Cally fought to get him out while his heart was still beating so she could say her goodbye to him.
Her mother Louise said: "She was beautiful, she was supportive, she was so loving. She would say it as it is. She was always around anybody when they needed support. If they were feeling down she would be the one to pick them back up. She would help anybody."
Growing up Cally was close to her twin brother Cory and their younger brother Ashton and enjoyed nothing more than motocross cycling. She became a "friend to everybody" and every single photo taken of her showed her always smiling, according to Louise. She said: "Cally Ann had a handful of lovely best friends but she had a lot of friends.

And she would do anything for her friends – if anybody needed anything, if they’d rang her and needed something, she’d drop anything to be with them and help them."
As an adult, Cally only lived a stone's throw away from her mum and the two formed a close bond, according to WalesOnline. “Every morning she would ring me and the first thing she would say was: 'Oright love?'," Louise recalled. She added: "She would call me every morning and every night. And at the end of every conversation we had on the phone, we would always say: ‘Ta-ra my darling, love you’. Every conversation ended with: ‘I love you’. We were really close."
In August 2018 Cally gave birth to her daughter, Lainee, who became the "apple of her eye". Louise said: “Her daughter was her absolute world. She was devoted to this little girl – absolutely devoted. They used to love doing TikTok together – they would put the music on and just started dancing. She loved to dance."
She added: "I just look at this little girl and all I see is her beautiful mammy. Lainee is so much like Cally when she was her age in her looks, her ways, her mannerism."
According to Louise the grief she has experienced since losing Cally has been "the worst pain" she has ever experienced. She added: "I’ve lost my best friend, I’ve lost my soulmate, I’ve lost my beautiful daughter."
In memory of Cally her best friend Abbie Lyons has launched a GoFundMe page on behalf of her family and friends. They hope that the money raised will help Cally’s five-year-old daughter Lainee. Abbie said: "I have launched the GoFundMe page as I know if it was me in Cally’s place she would do it for me with my little boy as she would do anything for anyone."
On the page, Abbie has written: "Instead of flowers the family would prefer the funds to go into a savings account for Cally's daughter who will be able to use the funds to make her life the best possible without her mammy by her side. We want her to have the best upbringing, one she would have had with Cally. If you can help with a donation big or small it will be very much appreciated. It will help massively and will have a huge impact on this little girl’s tough journey ahead."
According to Louise the outpouring of love, support, and donations has offered hope during a very difficult time for the family. She said: "The community has been hit – it’s been so much of a shock. My family has been a tower of strength. Cally's friends have been so supportive – they’ve been coming here, they want to take Lainee trampolining, and they want to do stuff with her.
She added: "I am overwhelmed with the generosity of people just to give this beautiful little girl a bright future. If anything would’ve happened to anyone else's child Cally Ann would’ve been the first person to arrange something like this. She would do anything for anybody."
