Lynda battled cancer twice, beating it once for it later to return with a incurable prognosis. Despite this Lynda continued to be the positive and inspirational person that she had always been. Despite how sick she was or how ill she felt she always made the best of it, for example she entered various TV shows such as The Weakest Link and Ready Steady Cook because she could and for charity. It was during this time that Lynda became involved with the Helen Rollason charity, which at the time was fundraising for a research centre and providing holistic treatments.

Sadly in July 2008 Lynda lost her battle with cancer, she was such a courageous woman who never lost her spark and love of life. Even nearly 10 years on it is impossible to forget that laugh and sense of humour of hers. I would like to give something back to such a incredible and valuable charity and raise money to help other people like Lynda to get the much needed help and support that can make all of the difference when going through such a difficult time. My little girls sadly never got to meet Lynda but I know they would have loved her just as they love her daughter Kerry and hopefully by seeing their mum run the marathon it will be a way of keeping her memory alive for them and show them how much Lynda meant to all of us. If she could be there she would be with the loudest cheer!

Thank you again for taking the time to look at my page.
