The family of a mum-of-two stabbed to death on a Lancashire street have described her as "irreplaceable".
Tracy Dryden, 37, died from a single stab wound to the chest following an incident in the Halton area of Lancaster on Friday.
Her husband has now been charged with her murder.
Police were called to School House Lane at 8.30am following reports of an incident in the street.

Tracy's family paid tribute to her in a statement release through Lancashire police. It said: "Tracy was a loving and wonderful mother, daughter and sister.
"She had many friends and real enthusiasm for walking, swimming, running and climbing with her sons.
"She was completely dedicated to her two children, whilst at the same time working in completing her PHD.
"She will be dreadfully missed by us and an irreplaceable part of all our lives."
On Saturday John Dryden, 43, of Thacking Lane, Ingleton, North Yorkshire, was charged with murder and remanded in custody to appear before Lancaster Magistrates Court on Monday.
