A Body Of A British Woman Has Been Discovered In Tonga, According To Her Brother.
According to her brother, a body has been discovered in the search for a British woman who was swept away by the tsunami in Tonga.
Angela Glover died trying to save her dogs, and her family was "devastated," according to Nick Eleini.
Her body was discovered by her husband James, who had managed to cling to a tree when the tsunami hit after an undersea volcano erupted, he claimed.
"Angela and James enjoyed the Tongan people and loved their life in Tonga," Mr Eleini added.
Mr Eleini, speaking outside their mother's home in Hove, said that Angela, 50, was born in Brighton and had lived in Tonga since marrying James.
They were "well-loved by locals and ex-pats alike," he claimed, because he ran the Happy Sailor tattoo parlour, which employed and trained Tongans, and she started the Tongan Animal Welfare Society.
Mr Eleini said Angela had a "strong love of dogs" and that her organization harbored and treated stray animals before trying to find them homes.
"Angela and James adored the Tongan people and their life in Tonga. They admired the Tongan devotion of family and culture in particular "he stated."
"Angela had always wanted to swim with whales since she was a little girl, and Tonga gave her the opportunity to do so."
