Story
Lynda Broadmore...born 14th July 1956...daughter of Colin and Phyllis Lee...wife of Tony Broadmore...mother of Candice, Laura and Rikki Broadmore...grandmother of Cayden, Chaya, Ashton, Codey and Anais...died 9th April 2017.
What a woman she was, would do anything for anybody, without asking any questions at all. She lived a good life, the stories she could tell were next to none.
In October 2009 her 3 grandchildren were taken into care and without any hesitations she agreed to take them into her home, she treated them like they were her own...she gave them a happy life and everything they ever wanted...in 2013 she developed serious back problems, curvature of the spine and osteoporosis, she could barely walk...but the strong person she was, didn't stop her from living the way she wanted to and not stop loving and caring for the children.
The oldest boy Cayden was diagnosed with autism in 2012 and the youngest boy Codey was diagnosed with autism (ODD) which is a really rare form. It became difficult for everybody but with all the pain, all the problems, all hits she took..she still stood tall and took it head on. On 7th March was was diagnosed with a rare bone cancer, 3 weeks later ended up taking her from us...even in her last moments she was still asking about the kids and was begging us to make sure them and my dad were looked after...she died peacefully with my dad by her side holding her hand and kissing her head.
She was the Definition of the perfect woman, the perfect wife, the perfect mother, the perfect grandparent.
Unfortunately she never took a funeral plan out...so this money would help go towards the send off she deserves and anything that is left over will go forwards helping her husband Tony who will now be looking after the 3 grandchildren.
