Family's tribute to Chelmsley grandmother killed in collision

A GRANDMOTHER killed in a collision this week has been named as Jean Stilgoe - who had lived on Chelmsley Wood for more than 50 years.
The 79-year-old, who died a few hours after the crash on Tuesday evening, was described as a "loving" member of the community.
Ms Stilgoe (pictured) had suffered the fatal injuries in the collision with a Ford Focus, which happened on the Chester Road.
She had been taken to hospital but passed away a few hours later.
A statement from her family said: "Jean was a loving, caring and dedicated wife, mother and grandmother.
"She was involved in community projects ranging from being an Akela with the local cubs to most recently performing with the Three Trees Community Centre Ukulele Band and Choir.
"Jean possessed a joy for life that was infectious and she will be sadly missed by her family and her many friends."
The driver of the Ford Focus remained at the scene and is helping Solihull Police with their enquiries.
Anyone who witnessed the incident, which happened around 5.45pm, can call officers on 101.
