    For such a little lady, Nellie packed a big love of life.
    She made her mark in the world through her loving kindness and of course she will be greatly missed by those she left behind.

    I never met Nellie, but if she played any role in helping shape her granddaughter Karen, with whom I am privileged to work, then she must have been quite the lady. My wife Doreen and I wish her all the best in her next life.

    Dear John, Andy, George and family
    Looking back your mum was one of the people that comes to mind whenever I think of living in Bolton. She was a warm lovely women. Our Mum passed last month so I am in early days myself. One of the thought that is comforting me is Mum always said when life is difficult focus on your children (or grandchildren.

    Though saddened by her passing, I can only be in awe at the life “Aunt Nellie” lived. What an important part of my early life she was…welcoming into her home like one of the family. I have so many warm memories of those days. My love and condolences go to the Traynor Family.
