THE family of a Blackburn man who lost his battle with cancer earlier this month have said their goodbyes.

Danny Clark, of Hozier Street, died at home on Saturday, January 10, aged 43.

A funeral service was held at Accrington Crematorium at 9.40am on Monday. In a statement, Mr Clark’s family said: “Danny will be very sadly missed by all his loving family and friends.”

The former Witton Park High School student, whose wife Angela died last year, was described as a ‘much-loved son, father, brother, uncle, and a good friend to many.’
