Global News
Angela Glover owned a rescue shelter and was trying to save some of the animals in her care.
The body of Angela Glover, a 50-year-old British woman, has been found in the aftermath of a huge undersea volcanic eruption that triggered a tsunami.
Glover, from Brighton, went missing after an undersea volcano erupted near Tonga on Saturday, which sent large waves crashing along the Pacific nation shorelines.
Her brother, Nick Eleini, told Sky News that his sister, an animal charity worker, died while she and her husband were out saving animals.
“I understand that this terrible accident came about as they tried to rescue their dogs. As you can imagine, her family is devastated. And we respectfully request that we are given privacy to grieve,” Eleini told the publication.
According to Australian news site News.com.au, Glover’s husband, James, survived the wave by clinging to a tree. His wife and dogs, however, were washed away.
The website reports James was the one who found his wife’s body.
Glover shared a final tragic Instagram post of a gorgeous sunset, the day after the volcano erupted.
