Eleanor Joy Williamson and Andrew Jackson
He had recently moved to Suffolk from Sawtry. The passenger in the Sorento, 79-year-old Eleanor Joy Williamson, of Silkstone Common, near Barnsley[4], South Yorkshire, was pronounced dead at the scene. A 79-year-old woman from the Spalding area of Lincolnshire, who was driving the Sorento, suffered serious injuries and was taken to the Queen’s Medical Centre, in Nottingham[5], where she remains in a critical condition.
There were tributes to Mrs Williamson following her death, with a family statement saying: “Joy, as she was known to one and all, leaves her husband of 57 years, three children and six grandchildren. “She wore many different hats during her life, working for the American airforce at Mildenhall and had been involved for many years in education in the Barnsley area. “Joy was also active in the equestrian world and was a member of a number of brass bands.
“In retirement, she took up photography at a competitive level and was always active and delighted in supporting her family in their education, hobbies and employment. She also loved travel and driving.” Anyone who saw the crash or has dashcam footage of either vehicle in the build-up to it, should report it through the Cambridgeshire Police force website using reference CC-24112023-0372.
