Speaking to The Bbc The Day before Elianne's funeral, they said it will be " a celebration of her life" and She will " forever remain in our Hearts ".

Shortly before a community event at Croydon Voluntary Action on Friday, Elianne's aunts Regina Boafo and Ruby Paintsil spoke of their " amazing" niece's dreams to be lawyer and to " defend. . The voiceless".

" She doesn't like injustice; She likes justice for people. Every time She 'd Get In trouble [it was] fighting for Someone Else , " Ms Paintsil said.

They said although The teenager was " very quiet" She loved dancing and singing and was always " smiling a Lot ".

Ms Paintsil said Elianne was respectful of her family and enjoyed spending time with them, adding: " She doesn't like really a Lot of arguments; She would never argue with her auntie or uncle. "

The aunts said they never expected such a tragedy would happen to them, or that moments after Elianne said goodbye and set off for school She would be dead.

" That is The bit I cannot Get Out of my head, " Ms Boafo said.

" She is very calm, She was The Last person I would ever think someone would harm her with a knife, " Ms Paintsil said.

She stressed Elianne didn't mix with " The wrong people" and The aunts said She would keep In Touch with family if She went out to The Cinema or a restaurant.

Speaking about The Day Elianne was killed, Ms Boafo said after Waking Up She saw her phone had been called " many times" and when She found out her niece had died She was " really destroyed, broken".

Since her niece's death, Ms Boafo said She hasn't been able to work and rarely leaves The House . She has moved in with her Sister - Elianne's mother - to help support her.

" Up to now, I'm still not The same woman. . I can't do anything. I Get Up and I don't even feel like dressing up, but you have to put clothes on because people are coming to sympathise With You , " She explained.

" If I can't even do things, just imagine how My Sister feels - My Sister who was trying to be strong and go to work, She can't. "

" She is broken a Lot . . we have to keep comforting her. She hasn't been herself, Every Day broken into pieces, " Ms Paintsil said.

" If we could change The Clock I Wish we would not have to go through this.

" You ask questions - why? Why does that have to happen? " She added. " I Wish nobody would ever go through this pain. "

Despite their grief, both women said they have been amazed at The support from The community along with thousands of cards and messages sent from around The World - All of which has " really helped" their family.

" We really appreciate everything The Nation and everyone is doing. . Thank You , " Ms Boafo said.

Elianne's funeral will be held in Croydon on Saturday.

Ms Paintsil said After Her burial there will be a celebration of her life because " She 's a girl that liked to bring joy to people's lives".

" If Elianne was here She 'd say 'Go On , have fun, don't break down', and things like that. "

Ms Boafo added: " It will be nice to celebrate it and for us, She will forever remain in our Hearts - She can never be gone.

" Even though She is gone, we know that her memory will forever be With Us . "
