The family of a firefighter who died in a blaze that claimed three lives have said her “bravery and fearlessness shone through right until the end”.
Firefighters Jennie Logan, 30, and Martyn Sadler, 38, along with father-of-two Dave Chester, 57, were killed in the blaze that engulfed the Bicester Motion site on Thursday evening.
It was brought under control and a police investigation is under way.
In a statement released by Thames Valley Police, Ms Logan’s family said she was a “much loved daughter to us, her sister, Emilie, and ‘Mum’ to her beloved dog, Mouse”.
Ms Logan owned a dog business and used to attend shows with her dog Mouse.
“We still can’t believe we’ll never see her again, driving around Bicester collecting her dogs, which were like a second family,” the family statement continued.
“She found her calling three years ago when she joined the fire service where she could use her incredible strength and determination.
“Jennie was a force to be reckoned with but to everyone who knew her, she was such a loving, caring, thoughtful person, who would do anything and everything to help.
“She lived life at 100mph, juggling her business with her love for rugby, where she made some truly amazing friends.
“When Jennie’s pager went off, there was no stopping her.
“Never did we think that when running out the door last Thursday, to give it her all, like she always did, it would be for the final time.
“Her bravery and fearlessness shone through right until the end.
“Our lives will never be the same, we’ll miss her beautiful smile and zest for life.
“She will always be our hero and we are so immensely proud of her. Forever in our hearts.”
