A mum who passed away earlier this year from bowel cancer made a special pact with her closest friends before she died. Jennifer Roche, from Merseyside, died on January 24, after a year-long battle with bowel cancer. Her husband David described her as the kind of person who dedicated their life to "putting a smile on people's faces".
Jennifer who was 34, made a pact with her friends and family to climb Snowdon this year, telling them she had a vision of herself on top of a mountain after all her treatment was over, wearing purple. Those close to her have decided to keep that promise as it is the "closest to heaven" they can get.
David told the Liverpool Echo: "Jen was a fantastic person and we had three beautiful children. She was just really bubbly, Jen could walk into a room and light it up that is the best way to describe her.
