THE family of Dawn Williams have released a picture of her.

The family has expressed its gratitude to anyone who has paid tribute to Dawn, who was killed at her home in Fosse Close, Rodbourne, last week.

A statement left on the Adver website said: "Dawn's parents wish to thank everyone for their moving tributes. They have been a great comfort."

The picture was taken in 1993.

Dawn's former partner Andrew Veal, 43, of Fosse Close appeared at Swindon Magistrates' Court on Wednesday charged with her murder. He has been remanded to appear at Bristol Crown Court later this month.
