The 87-year-old Beryl
O’Flynn, who leaves behind 13 children and a further 130 grandchildren,
great grandkids, and great-great grandchildren, was seen off by around 600
friends and family.
Beryl died in hospital after a short illness, with some of
her family by her bedside.
Son Brian Curtis,
64, said: “She was a legend. Everyone has
their own little stories about her; she
was the stuff of folklore. “She had a kind nature and her response to
any of her grandchildren was ‘no probs’.”
Beryl had 48 grandchildren, 76 great grandchildren and six
great-great grandchildren – but never forgot to send any of them birthday and
Christmas cards, along with a £5 note. It cost her £1,500 a year.
The twice-married, retired biscuit factory worker said in a
recent interview: “I can die happy; I
have had a happy life.”
