Councillors in Southend-on-Sea held a minute’s silence in memory of a seven-year-old girl who was killed by a falling tree.
Leonna Ruka, from Dagenham in east London, had been visiting Chalkwell Park in Southend-on-Sea with family on 28 June.
Four other children were also injured and Leonna’s six-year-old cousin remains critically ill in hospital.
At a meeting of Full Council last week, the Worshipful the Mayor, Cllr Nigel Folkard, led a minute's silence in memory of Leonna.
A council statement said, ‘The council and the wider Southend community stand united together in grief and support during this difficult time.’
