Mary Elizabeth Barden ‘Betty’
Of your charity please pray for the Repose of the Soul of Betty who passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by her loving family on 16th November 2020 Fortified by the Rites of Holy Mother Church. The devoted wife of the late Derek, much loved mum of Derek, David, Wendy and Frank, also a cherished grandma, great grandma and a dear relative and friend to many.
Betty spent her working life in local mills and factories as a machinist. She was an avid cricket fan and active member of Rishton Cricket Club where she was a well known and respected lady. Betty was also a life long member of St Charles’ RC Church.
Most of all Betty was a devoted lady who enjoyed nothing more than spending time with those whom she loved. A true dog lover, Betty adored her Yorkshire terrier companions.

If roses grow in Heaven Lord, Please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms And tell her they’re from me. Tell her that I love her and miss her, And when she turns to smile, Place a kiss on her cheek, And hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it everyday, But there’s an ache within my heart, That will never go away.
Peter, Vivian and Victoria Norman
Thinking of you all at this sad time. Betty really was one of a kind. She will be dearly missed.
