THE family of a 50-year-old woman killed in a road crash have spoken for the first time about someone they say would make time for anyone.
Janice McKenzie, a mother-of-three, from Beltinge, near Herne Bay, died when her car was in a head-on collision with a van last month on the Old Thanet Way.
Her husband Mike, 54, and daughter Donna, said members of the family were still struggling to come to terms with their loss.
Mike said: “I cannot put our loss into words. Janice touched so many people. She had a gift, a kind of sixth sense. She knew if people had a problem and would always spare time to talk.”
He stressed: “So many people have told us how devastated they are and I think their loss is almost as huge as ours.”
The couple shared the running of their designer wardrobe firm Space Master.
Donna, 24, said: “She had just turned 50 but people told her she only looked in her late 30s. Others thought we were sisters."
Mrs McKenzie also leaves two sons, Paul, 26, and Scott, 22.
