The family of a nurse killed in a car crash have paid tribute to the grandmother's "loving and caring nature".
Karen Kimblin, 63, died from her injuries after her vehicle was in a collision with another car on St Helens Road in Bolton, Greater Manchester, on Saturday evening.
Her family described her as a "loving wife and doting mother and grandmother" and said her work as a nurse came "so easily to her" due to her caring personality.
A man aged in his 30s was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and was being treated in hospital.
'World crushed'
Mrs Kimblin, a grandmother-of-seven, mother-of-four and wife to Ken Kimblin, worked as a nurse for most of her life.
Her relatives said: "Karen worked all of her life as a nurse caring for others which came so easily to her with her caring and loving nature.
"Our family loves her beyond words and received the same love and devotion in return from her.
"Our world is crushed to losing her. Her memory will live on with us forevermore".
