The family of Luton-born Natalie Crichlow, 44, say they are ‘shocked and devastated’ after she was attacked by an unknown intruder in her bedroom on July 28 while visiting to take care of her disabled brother.
Her niece Ashley Best has claimed the intruder broke in the house in Christ Church, before strangling her and setting her alight, leaving her with 75 per cent burns to her body.
Natalie, who had survived cancer twice and had two strokes in the past decade, died in hospital just over a week later on August 6, her family say.
Ashley said they were ‘all in a state of shock’ and did not understand why it happened.
She said: ‘For someone who had battled through so much to just be taken in this way and lose their life is just beyond understanding.
‘It is all just a shame. She said she wanted to live life to the fullest because her life had nearly been taken from her.’
Natalie, also known by the names of Natalee and Karma, had lived proudly as a gay women for a number of years. She had worked in various jobs including as door staff and as a makeup artist.
Family friend Mitra Wikes remembered her as ‘a true survivor and warrior who endured so much in life but always kept going and had a true passion for living life to the max no matter what she had gone through’.
Mitra, who said Natalie regularly visited Barbados to look after her brother after the death of her mother and uncle earlier this year, added: ‘This is why it’s so heartbreaking that her life was taken in such a cruel way.’
A spokesman for the Royal Barbados Police Force said no arrests have been made.
