THE FAMILIES of the three people murdered in Didcot have spoken of their grief about the tragedy.
Their touching tributes come after post mortem examinations revealed Philip Howard, 44, Jan Jordon, 48 and daughter Derin Jordon, six, died of multiple stab wounds.
Mr Howard’s children said: “Take care of our sister Dezzy up there daddy, take care of Jan too.
“We wish you didn't have to go Daddy, it's our worst nightmare come true.
“We are taking care of Tetley Daddy, Uncle Andy too.
“You were the best there ever was Daddy.
“We're so glad to be part of you.”
His brother added: “Our family are still all in shock and disbelief.
“My beloved Bro and Uncle Philip you’ll be missed so much. Until we meet again little Bro...”
Ms Jordon’s and six-year-old Derin’s family said: “Our family have experienced a tragedy that is quite frankly unimaginable.
“Janet was a beloved daughter sister and auntie. Dezzy was a breath a fresh air and truly one of a kind.
“For a family to lose someone so young cannot be explained in mere words. We would ask now that we are left alone to grieve.”
The family, who lived in Vicarage Road, were found dead in their home on Saturday evening.
Ms Jordon's son Jed Allen - who was the only police suspect - was found dead in a wooded area near Marston Ferry Road on Monday.
Police are yet to formal identify the body of six-year-old Derin, but said they believed the body found with her parents is her's.
A report will now be prepared and handed to the coroner’s office in due course.
A post mortem examination on the body believed to be Jed Allen's is yet to be completed.
The family and friends of the victims have asked that their privacy is respected during this time.
