Peacefully, in hospital, on 17th March 2025, Liz, aged 56 years, of Clayton-le-Moors. The devoted mum and best friend to Lisa, whom she loved to the moon and back. A cherished niece, cousin, and a loyal friend to many. Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Liz moved to England as a young girl with her family. She had a deep passion for music, with Queen and David Bowie among her favourites. She loved attending gigs and concerts, often with her beloved daughter by her side. The bond between Liz and Lisa was unbreakable, though they sometimes clashed, they were, above all, best friends. A devoted animal lover, Liz provided a warm and loving home to many four-legged companions over the years. She had a heart of gold, loyal, trustworthy, and a friend for life to those lucky enough to know her. But she also had a fiery spirit, she called a spade a spade and was never afraid to speak her mind. Liz was a well-known and much-loved figure in the craft world, formerly running ‘Pendle Stitches,’ where she made many friendships with loyal customers. She had an endless love for crafts and was always on the hunt for her next project. A natural teacher, she took great joy in sharing her vast knowledge and skills with others. A true fighter, Liz faced life with courage and determination, always looking for the positives. She was bright, bubbly, and loved colour—so, in her honour, please wear something colourful to her funeral service to reflect the vibrant spirit she brought into the world.
