THE funerals of tragic mother and daughter Linda and Shannah Birkett are to take place at Penmount Crematorium on October 16 at 3pm.
Linda, 32, and Shannah, 14, from Bissom died when Mrs Birkett's Ford Ka collided with a Jeep Cherokee on the A38 at Glynn Valley, between Bodmin Parkway and Trago Mills on September 23.
Shannah's 11-year-old brother Peter was a rear seat passenger in the Ka and suffered two broken legs and head injuries in the accident. Their father Geoffrey was not in the vehicle at the time.
There are no other details about the funeral at the moment but there will be donations instead of flowers to the NSPCC and RSPCA.
Shannah was a pupil at Penryn College while Linda was a popular teaching assistant at Penryn infants.
