This is so sad.

I just hate it when some missing people seem to have no one in their lives.

There has to be someone out there who cares about Lesley Stevens.

I'm presuming it was suicide? The article just states 'her body was found in the sea'.
Being a nurse is a tough underpaid job in the UK, even more over-worked during Covid.
Add to that fact that it doesn't seem she had any family nor friends, then I can see why she was depressed and lonely.

She moved there 18 years ago and her husband died before that.
That’s a long time to be alone.

Yes, it is. Perhaps she was shy, and found it hard to socialise. Or didn't have the energy due to her job.

Her husband must have died quite young.

I'm sad her life ended like this, but she's at complete peace now. RIP.

RIP Lesley.

I hope you are at peace now.
