Tributes have been paid to the three-year-old boy and two teenagers who died after a devastating fire ripped through a family home in Honiton.
The toddler, a 17-year-old girl and an 18-year-old man were pulled-out of the burning terraced property in Honiton, East Devon, on Friday.
But the trio, thought to be from two separate families, were pronounced dead on Saturday after sustaining serious injuries in the blaze.
Doctors battled to save the young child in the specialist burns unit at Frenchay Hospital in Bristol, after all three were airlifted to the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital.
A six-year-old boy and a man in his 30s – thought to be the father – were also treated for smoke inhalation.
Floral tributes and teddy bears were left outside the charred two-storey house near the town centre at the weekend."Rosie and Andy, goodnight and God bless. Always remembered," one read. Another read: "Rosie, I love you. You are and always will be my best friend, my sister. Be at peace. Love and kisses, Josh xx."
Another floral tribute read: "There are no words to describe the sadness. But please know that all of our thoughts are with both families who have suffered such tragic loss."
Police confirmed each of the three deaths on Saturday. A spokesman added: "Our thoughts are with the family at this time and the investigation to establish the cause of the fire is ongoing."
Eight people, all but one from the same family, were in the property when the blaze broke out.
Smoke was seen billowing out of an upstairs bedroom as most of the damage centred on the upper floor and roof.
Emergency services were called to the scene on Lee Close soon after 7.30am.
Neighbours offered their condolences to a "pleasant and quiet" family.
Angela Ford, 63, said: "I saw flames coming from an upstairs bedroom. There was a lot of commotion and the children were in distress."
Paramedics were seen giving chest compression treatment to a young child and trying to resuscitate the 18-year-old boy at the scene.
"It's really tragic and not the sort of thing you expect to happen on your doorstep," said Jon Lidster, 25.
Kate Clarke said: "They are such a lovely, lovely family. The children were always playing together in the garden. It's so horrible."
Forensic officers spent hours over the weekend at the 1970s property, searching for clues – althought the fire is not thought to be suspicious.
Residents have pulled together to show support for the families by donating clothing and household items.
Clyst Honiton-based Beaumont and Mills Removals, which set up the appeal, said it had received "absolutely brilliant" support from people across the South West.
Spokesman Fiona Beaumont, who is related to the family, said: "The family have been left with nothing but they have all got somewhere to stay. The response has been incredible, we have already filled a lock-up and are running out of space."
Prayers and financial support have been given by churches in the town. Rector of Honiton, The Reverend Sue Roberts, described the incident as a "shock to the whole community".
A Facebook group has been created with more than 500 people signed up to support the family.
