Beloved daughter of Douglas and Jean Prosser.

She was one of 116 children who died when a mine waste tip came roaring down the hillside and covered her school, the Pantglas Junior School. The slide has been described as "a tidal wave of coal waste". Half of the children at the school were killed, and 5 teachers.
