Berni Cliffe's funeral today

The funeral of Berni will take place at 12.00 noon today with a service at the Church of St Mary in Crewe.

Thereafter there will be the committal at the Crematorium for the family members. The reception after the cremation will be held at the Crewe Alexandra Stadium.

It is requested, if you wish, that any donations be given to the St Luke's Hospice.

No flowers, please, but Berni's sisters thought a single red rose would be wonderful.

We will remember Berni as a brave lady whose plight inspired a community in an attempt to help her fight against a particularly virulent cancer.
