Jane Tomlinson lost her long battle against cancer on Monday 3rd September 2007.

For those of you who didn't know of Jane & her incredible achievements, the BBC has posted an obituary page here : http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/2585103.stm

Jane and her family setup a charity called JanesAppeal to raise money to support other families who are affected by cancer. You can donate money to this worthwhile charity here : http://www.justgiving.com/janetomlinson

BBC Leeds has put together a great page about Jane, detailing her activities over the last 7 years of her life : http://www.bbc.co.uk/leeds/features/jane_tomlinson/

I only met Jane once, very briefly about 4 years ago, and I was taken with her unassuming yet insprational nature and totally down to earth attitude.

Her husband Mike works for the same company as myself and I'm sure that everyone here would wish to pass on our sympathies to Jane's family at this time.

Jane you were, and still are, an inspiration to many people across the world.

Rest in peace.
