IT is incredible how the acts of one individual can have such a huge impact on a community, but Beverley O’Connor managed to do exactly that.
Our Page 5 story is dedicated to this fundraising hero who left behind such an important legacy.
She demonstrated how kindness and community spirit is everything in a world where bad things still happen every day.
We join her friends and colleagues in saying how greatly she will be missed, and it goes without saying she was loved and cherished by so many.
The mayor of Burnham said the parish will never be the same again.
Only time will heal the hearts of those who knew her best.
