Mum who plunged 100ft from tower block never got over daughter's death

By John Hoskins »

INVESTIGATIONS were continuing today after a mum died having fallen 100ft from a Hampshire tower block, three years after her teenage daughter was found hanged.

Tracey Pancaldi died after plunging from the tenth floor of flats overlooking Southampton Water.

Witnesses reported seeing three people struggling to haul her back to safety as she was shouting Let me go' seconds before they lost their grip.

Others told how she had lost her footing on the balcony of the property and had slipped.

Friends said the mum, who had two sons called Daniel and Macaulay and three daughters called Shanice, Sherelle and Millie, who is aged just one, had never got over the trauma of her eldest daughter's death.

It was in 2005 when 18-year-old Jade, an aspiring model and FHM High Street Honey, was found hanging from a tree in a copse near her home in Bitterne following a minor argument with her mum.

Southampton coroner Keith Wiseman recorded an open verdict, saying it was impossible to know what was going through her mind in the moments leading up to her death.

Mrs Pancaldi, who was in her 40s and lived in Bitterne, was adamant her daughter had no intention of committing suicide. She said: "I am positive Jade would not have intended to do this. I know she wouldn't have left her family devastated like this."

Afterwards Mrs Pancaldi spoke to the Daily Echo telling how she was trying to come to terms with the death of the teenager who she described as her best friend. She said: "We were like sisters, we were together all the time. She was permanently at my side, always where I was. I don't know how I'm going to live day by day without her being by my side."

Police were called to Havre Towers in International Way, Weston, at about 6am on Saturday following reports a woman had fallen.

One distraught pensioner choked back tears as she recalled Mrs Pancaldi's last moments.

Wiping away tears, the woman described how she had stepped on to her balcony at Havre Towers for an early morning cigarette when she suddenly saw something flying past her.

"I heard a crash, I looked down and realised it was a woman. I saw her lying on the concrete. It was absolutely shocking."

She told how a man living in the adjacent Hampton Towers block had also seen the tragedy. He shouted She's gone' and called the emergency services.

A couple said they were in bed in Havre Towers when they heard what sounded like a heated argument coming from the flat below.

"It then went quiet but later a neighbour came round to say a woman had gone over a balcony,"

said the man. "We went out and saw a body on the ground."

Detectives in Bitterne are leading the investigation into Mrs Pancaldi's death. They confirmed she had been pronounced dead at the scene. A post-mortem is likely to take place before an inquest is opened.

Anyone with information is being urged to contact Det Sgt Chris Yates at Bitterne police station on 0845 045 4545.

as sad as it is that she couldn't get over losing her eldest daughter, it's very selfish that she has now left all her other children without a mother.

I think we all need to be thankful that we where not in a position of losing a child and i think that we should all keep our judgements to ourselves, there are 5 children reading these comments about their mother and i think its terrible that in their time of sorrow people cant take a step back and think. I new this woman and after losing her daughter i asked her how she got through the days and she told me its because iv got to live for my other kids, she new how important it was for them to have her. My heart goes out to all of you losing your sister now losing your mother, she loved you all so much and we all know that this was just an accident. Take care xx

Everything is "Easy to say" what is expressed is however, fact.
This woman has children whose lives will be further scarred by their Mother taking her own life to add to the trauma of losing their eldest sibling by suicide. Very sad for the Children left behind, and yes, could be viewed as extremely selfish.

My thoughts go out to all the family left behind but I can't help feeling that she was selfish enough to take her own life. I appreciate that she lost her daughter but she has left behind 5 other children who now all have to grow up without their mother. And as for calling it an accident, get real, suicide is not an accident.

Not one person knows what was going through Tracey's mind on saturaday morning. No one has the right to declare her as selfish when it hasnt even been established that it was suicide.

Tracey wasn't selfish just reckless- meaning with out thought of danger: marked by lack of thought about danger and other possible undesirable consequences. Think people need to grow up a bit and stop passing judgement, is very sad that you all have nothing better to do, and are not thinking about the people really suffering at the moment like her CHILDREN .

This mother was obviously seriously depressed to the point that she wanted to take her own life. This is an illness which makes rational thought (i.e. that it is a selfish act to take ones own life) diffucult, if not impossible. Its very sad all round. My heart goes out to her family.

I saw this happen from my tower block, but i didnt know her. It looked to me as if people were trying to hold her back up and she was trying to get back up. I phoned the police and they said they were on their way. I didnt watch her fall, just saw her on the pavement after. It was one of the most traumatic things i have ever seen and I just pray she is reunited with her daughter now. My condolences go out to all her family. R.I.P

I am afraid that this is a public forum, this is not the best place to come looking for messages of support. You may well get messages of sympathy from the majority, but these will be amongst other comments from people who will be basing their individual comments on the news story without thought for the feelings of those affected. My advice to the true friends of this lady and her family is to not rely on an internet site to show your support, rather make a true effort and go and see the family or telephone and express your condolences in person.

I have not lost a child but I have seen the effect it has had on members of my family who have. The hurt and pain that you go through is indescribable, it's a constant never-ending pain that does not go away but you learn to live with it. The pain that this lady and her family went through every day must have been sheer torture and I would not wish it on my worst enemy.
Her alleged suicide may have been a tragic call for help that went so, so wrong but we must not forget the children left behind. They are going to go through life maybe having to explain what happened to their mother and sister, can you imagine how hard that is going to be for them?? Please, stop with the negative "She selfish" etc, think of the others left behind. My heart goes out to you and your family. May you find peace and comfort in each other.

Unless you have been in the situation that Tracy has been in it should not bee judged as selfish instead 'There but for the grace of God go I' is what you should be thinking. Some years ago I was in a slightly different situation and I was so deeply sad and depressed I thought my family would be better off with out my constant presence of being that way so attempted suicide 3 times but every time I was found and I was always so angry, but in time thankfully I got well and I am very happy now but things could have been so different for my family. My heart and thoughts goes out to Tracys family and I will say a prayer for them all.

I was so very shocked to learn about Tracey. Only spoke to her about a week ago! I feel very sad for her family she left behind but also understand that when you are not strong and life is tough, irrational thoughts are uppermost in your mind. Sometimes you feel the world would be a better place without you and cannot go on.

Tracey was clearly a much loved lady, judging by the majority of the comments on this site (and that's just from the people who have access to a computer!)so why is it that there are a minority who feel the need to post derogatory opinions about a lady they know nothing about? Such a sorry situation for the family and friends concerned and yet I feel the most pity should lay at the feet of those sad enough not to know when to back off. My thoughts go out to Tracey and her family.

I feel sorry for the family over this but this is a site to comment on the story not leave messages of condolences. She was a sad lady to leave her family behind. A man with no wife and children with no mother. The loss of a child is hard but self distruction is not the answer. She had a yr old child who unlike the others will never even remmember her face let alone the time she has spent with her.I survided a suiside atempt it was my children that stoped me goin any further.i was in deep depression at the time. I`m so glad that i didn`t die i`m goin to be a granmother and i`m so happy that my son an his wife have me to be there 4 them at this wonderfull time. I understand how she many of felt but i`m sad for the family for the lost of 2 well loved ppl. no one ecept her no`s what the true story is and now she has taken that to her grave.everyone can bad mouth a person but it`s hard for someone who has never been then to understand it.
