A woman who tragically died in a crash on the A95 in the north-east of Scotland last week has been named as Sally Foulds. The 38-year-old was an "adored" mum to three young boys and a highly regarded NHS trauma nurse in the Highlands.
The incident took place at around 7.45am on Wednesday, September 14 near Broomhill. Sally, from Nethy Bridge, was the driver of a grey Ford Focus car which was involved in a collision with a blue Volvo articulated lorry around 7.45am. The male driver of the lorry was uninjured.
The young mum has left behind her husband Greig and three sons; Rhys, Olly and Finlay, as well as her mum Sara and brother Ben.
Many have paid tribute to the nurse with an outpouring of love who was a loved and respected friend and colleague. Sara Ramsey described her a the "Queen of the trauma theatre".
Colleague Morag Dunbar added: "Awe Beautiful Sally, what an immense loss you are to our theatre family…
"Will miss your gorgeous face every day. Such good fun and always up for a laugh. Gone but most definitely never forgotten."
"Sally was my first mentor in the job I love, she taught me so much," Kirk Channer said. "Work won't be the same."
Fiona Evans commented: "Beautiful Sally, will miss your wicked sense of humour, potty mouth, that sometimes caught you out…loudspeakers! You didn’t mince your words and knew what you wanted when it came to making Trauma Theatre the best it could/can be.
"You really have left the biggest void in the department. Sending love to Greig, the boys and all your family. Will love and miss you forever Sally."
Sandra Glass added: "Theatres will never be the same without hearing your infectious laugh."
"The world will never be the same without you in it Sally," Elizabeth MacRae said. "You will forever be a massive part of my time in theatres and a loving and caring friend through my hard times and always able to make me smile with your wicked humour."
Theatre nurse Laura Hubbard said: "The world will never be quite as bright without you in it gorgeous girl, I feel so lucky to have had you as a friend and colleague, I will forever cherish the memories of all the giggles we shared."
A celebration for Sally’s life will take place in Inverness on Wednesday, October 5.
Sergeant Chris Donaldson of Police Scotland’s Road Policing Unit said: “Our thoughts remain with Sally’s family and friends.
