“Anne was a servant to the public and councillor of Rochdale for nearly 40 years. She was enjoying a very happy and energetic retirement when she was taken from us.
“She was deeply loved by her family and friends for providing the glue that kept people together.
“The fact that she was killed in the circumstances she was is near impossible to comprehend.
