So sad to hear this.
She is a lovely lady and to me, she was very reminiscent of a female version of a leprechaun, full of charm and with a devilish sense of humour and wit, together with a touch of mischeivousnes thrown in for good measure. She will be missed by many, bless her.

Message from TW
Although many many people were friendly with BC, myself and Hayley had a special bond with her, and though I have been occupied with my own troubles BC was never far from my thoughts throughout her long illness.
My abiding memories of her are her gift to me, her warm smile, her wicked sense of humour, her quick wit, and her uncanny ability to see through ‘brave faces’ and ‘cheerful fronts’ and get to the roots of a person’s troubles. She was charismatic, kind, generous, warm and beautiful both inside and out. Rare indeed, and thetwo people I have ever known to have those qualities are both gone from us now.
I still chuckle, even on a sad day like today, at the first time I met her, at Peterborough train station. It was football day too, so the station was full of police, and as we passed a dozen or so of them, BC said in a loud voice, ‘now don’t you worry about me, cos I LEFT THE WEED ON THE TRAIN’. And proceeded to look like an innocent little old lady while Hayley and I looked to the ground. How we didn’t get arrested is beyond me.
She also cooked the best roast lamb dinner you ever had. RIP BC, thank you for the fun, and the happy memories.

These condolences are testament to how beautiful a person and how well respected BC was.

I emailed GR team this morning requesting that this thread be 'stickied' and, with everyone's wishes,I will send on to her son.

I am so sad to hear about BC passing away.

I didn't know her very well, but she posted on my Six Nations Rugby Thread earlier this year and said some lovely things about the thread to me. I was so chuffed!

I'm sorry I didn't get to know her better

RIP ButtercupFields <3

I met Maureen at the London Meet.

A beautifully turned out, smart, sassy lady. A real diamond.

What a shock, I knew she was ill, but had no idea how ill.

I am very sorry to hear this.

RIP
