THE heartbroken families of two divers who died off the coast of North Yorkshire have paid tribute to the men.
Stephen John Bailey, 49, of Filey, and Malcolm Exley, 52, of Scarborough, died after getting into difficulty eight miles off the coast of Filey on Monday (AUG3).
In a statement, Mr Bailey's wife Helen and children Anna and Robert said he learned to snorkel on a family holiday in 2003 and discovered Filey Diving Club soon after.
"As a family we know that whatever tragedy occurred there would be no question of one not aiding the other and that in itself brings a glimmer of comfort to us all," the statement said.
Mr Exley's wife Dot and their children Karen and Gary said: "He loved being part of the diving club, he loved diving and we take comfort in knowing that he died doing something he loved."
