MORE than £1,200 was raised at the funeral of born and bred Burtonwood resident Muriel Pennington, who died on March 16, aged 87.
Around 300 people turned out for the funeral at the Burtonwood Methodist Church on Phipps Lane.
The money will be donated to Action for Children, a charity Muriel has supported for many years, and the Burtonwood Methodist Church.
Son-in-law Steve Quennell said he was moved by the amount of people who attended.
