Ms Woodley’s cousin Patrice told The West Australian newspaper she would keep the “precious memories” she had in her heart.

“Our sister was a good woman, she had three beautiful children, she had a heart of gold,” she said.

“I will remember Tiffany as a young beautiful woman, very smart, she shared whatever she had. She’s going to be sadly missed by our family.”

The West also reports a women’s refuge in Perth lit a candle and held a minute’s silence for Ms Woodley on Tuesday morning, while the woman’s family are planning a candlelight vigil to honour her.

A man, aged in his 30s, was taken into police custody at the scene.

He’s assisting with inquiries, and no charges have been laid.

WA Police inspector Geoff Desanges said violence of any nature is unacceptable.

“WA Police have a zero tolerance towards violence, especially when perpetrated in the home,” Inspector Desanges said.

“If you call WA Police, we will come. We will make the situation safe. Victim safety is our priority.”
