MargaretSOUTHWORTHof Accrington, passed away peacefully at Henley House on October 11, aged 87 years.
The devoted wife of the late John, loving mum of Gillian and John, loved mother-in-law of David and Anita, cherished grandma of Charlotte, Nathan, Scott and Emily and great-grandma of Scarlet and Poppy and a respected relative and good friend to many.
Born in Kent, Margaret made the move to Accrington following her father securing his new job. She started her working life at the Co-op on Blackburn Road and also taught ballroom dancing. Margaret later worked Rists Wires and Textile Mouldings. Wherever she worked she was always a popular member of her working team and made many good friends along the way.
Margaret loved to be out and about, she enjoyed dancing and bingo and each Saturday she would be off out with her husband John, meeting up with their many friends whilst enjoying a drink or two. She was the most doting family lady and Margaret always looked forward to gathering the family for a party and she always ensured there was plenty of food and drink to go around.
Service Details: Margaret’s Funeral Service will be held at Accrington Crematorium Chapel on Wednesday, October 30 at 11am, followed by Interment at Accrington Cemetery.
