Tsunami victim's daughter: 'He was the best Dad ever'
The family of British man Stephen Magson, who died in the Boxing Day tsunami, have been remembering him, ten years on from the tragedy.
Stephen was watching wife Denise and daughter India kayaking on the Thai Island of Ko Phi Phi when the wave came crashing down.
Denise “just managed to grab” daughter India, who was 12 at the time, as she swept past, but Stephen died in the wave.
The pair set up the Stephen Magson Memorial Trust following the tsunami, to "channel as much money" as they could back to the area affected.
