THE family of murdered detective Heather Cooper attended her funeral in York Minster on Monday.

Her parents James and Caroline Cooper accompanied her three-year-old son Joshua and carried her three-month-old daughter Isabelle into the cathedral for the service in her home town, which was conducted by The Reverend Canon Glyn Webster.

Paying tribute to Miss Cooper on behalf of the family, he told the congregation he had just heard Joshua say "mummy is in Heaven".
