Thomas McCann aged 48 of Rosslave Walk, Brinnington, has been charged with murder. He has been remanded in custody and will appear at Manchester Crown Court on Friday 7 August
Paying tribute to Yvonne, her children said: “If anyone was to be asked to describe our Mum in one word, funny, loud, caring, loving are just a few.
“Our Mum raised four children and was a Nanna to two beautiful Grandchildren.
“There was never a quiet moment in our house, we knew we were loved unconditionally, and she taught us to stick up for ourselves, but also to be kind and to treat people right.
“Our Mum was never happier than when she had her family around her, and always put her children first. Mum was “louder than life” – we often heard her belly laugh before we even saw her. She was quick to smile and had time for anyone.
“Mum never took life too seriously, she was always joking and laughing, and it’s difficult to find a photograph of her where she isn’t pulling a funny face or sticking her tongue out.
“There was nobody like our Mum.
“She was our world and we were hers, we have lost the heart of our family. Mum was the bond that kept us all together, and we feel numb and broken without her. We know she would want us to enjoy our life every bit as much as she did. It brings us comfort to know that she is now with our Grandparents who she dearly missed.
“We would like to express our gratitude to friends and family for their kind thoughts, and would like to request some privacy at this tragic time.”
for many years i bought the MEN every day, then the huge price rises came along and when it passed the one pound mark i stopped. i understand it is still given free in some areas, how fair is that?.
