A face and name has been put to New Zealand's only known victim of the London bombings which have claimed more than 52 lives.
Twenty-six-year-old Shelley Marie Mather had been working and living in the city for three years is thought to have been travelling on the Picadilly line when the explosions occured.
New Zealand's High Commissioner in London Jonathon Hunt released details on the family's behalf.
"Shelly was a beautiful and vibrant girl who was truly loving, caring and giving," says Hunt.
John Mather and Kathryn Gilkison, came to London to help find their daughter, now they are preparing to hold a memorial service.
"John and Kathryn feel deeply for Shelly's London flatmates and friends and the others who knew her and who are sharing the indescribable grief . They also wish to extend their heartfelt sympathy to other families who have been devastated by the bombings," says Hunt.
Shelley Mather's family went on to thank those who helped them during their days in London, including friends and family, commission staff, and the metropolitan police.
They also had a special message for a stranger. A card was left at Russell Square for the Mather family. It read in part "to the mother looking for her daughter, my tears are for you, I wish you strength whatever you find here... arohanui" - it was signed Anna. The Mather's want Anna to know her card was found.
There will be a London memorial service for Shelley Mather next week at the same church where bomb victims were comforted and treated afte the blasts.
A condolecence book is being set up at the New Zealand High Commission and a second service will be also held in New Zealand.
But the Mather's say their focus now is bringing their daughter home.

BY Anonymous on Aug 17, 2005 | | | | I wish you peace Shelly,from a fellow New zealander living in the U.K.
These people say they believe in peace. How can they when they have taken so much.
I have a daughter (28) traveling in the U.K and could understand the pain of being a parent.
Take care.

I am devestated to hear of the loss of Shelley through these circumstances as you are. Shelley was my Contiki tour guide in October last year, I only knew her for 3 weeks but she played a big part in my first overseas experience with Shelley and she made it a "trip of a lifetime"...
Shelley had a lot of fun, and it takes an amazing, fun-loving person do be a tour guide and she did it with ease and imagination.
While no words can comfort you in your hour of loss, I wanted you to know how many lives she has touched, by receiving an email from someone who knew her for 3 weeks, you may confirm what you already know, that she was a special person who touched lives of people all over the world...
When I think there were 56 people killed in this tragedy, and I knew one of them, think about how many people who also knew Shelley through her line of work and are just as deeply sad to hear this news.
My sincere condolences
Jodie, Sydney, Australia
