Teenager who suddenly died had secret list of ambitions Lydia's mother, Kate Daniels, from Oxford, said: "I am heartbroken and devastated by the sudden loss of my beautiful Lydia." She added finding the list had made her proud of her daughter. Her grandmother Kathy Hamilton, of Barton, Oxfordshire, told the Oxford Mail: "It says a lot about her quest for knowledge, wanting to help people and wanting to achieve not just in education but in other areas of life. She loved school. She was a very deep thinker for her age and she would have achieved a lot. She wanted to change the world. Around 200 people turned out for the talented pupil's funeral at the end of January. She was buried in a coffin covered with the lyrics of Michael Jackson. Sue Croft, the head teacher at Spires Academy, said: "The list shows what an outstanding student she was - that determination to succeed. It is so ambitious. She had started to shine in the academy, she could have gone to Oxford University. It is so tragic.
