Family of Burnley nurse Georgina Carroll raising funds for Pendleside Hospice in her memory
Family and friends of a Burnley nurse, who has died at the age of 67, have raised over £700 in her memory for Pendleside Hospice.
Georgina Carroll died in the hospice on Wednesday, July 8. Her family have set up a justgiving page to ask for donations to the hospice, instead of funeral flowers, to thank staff for the ‘exceptional’ care she received.
Growing up in the Colne Road area of the town, Georgina attended St John’s Primary and the former St Hilda’s RC High schools. Working mainly as a district nurse, Georgina also had a stint as a midwife. A keen gym goer Georgina also loved swimming and holidaying.
Georgina leaves four children, Nicholas, Adam, Simone and Francine, three grandchildren, Betsy-Rae, Wren and Spencer and her siblings Bernadette, Siobhan and Frank. She also had several nieces, nephews and cousins.
Georgina’s funeral will be held on Friday, July 24, with a requiem mass at St John the Baptist Church at 12-45am followed by cremation at Burnley at 2-30pm. To make a donation to Pendleside Hospice in Georgina’s memory please click HERE.
