HOSPICE and community worker Annie Walshaw has died aged 92.

Mrs Walshaw, who died on Mother's Day, lived almost all her life in Mosley Common.

A founder and enthusiastic helper at the luncheon club at Lindale Hall, she was a St Anne's Hospice volunteer and fund-raiser for over 25 years.

Tydesley-born Mrs Walshaw died at her Commonside Road home surrounded by family. She leaves a son and daughter, three grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

A service was held on Tuesday at St John's Church, Mosley Common -- where Mrs Walshaw had sung in the choir -- followed by committal at Overdale.
