'I didn't get to say goodbye': Daughter's heartbreaking tribute to mum who was hit by lorry as she pleads for answers

A heartbroken daughter has said she will never give up on her mum three years on from her tragic death. Sheila Duffy died aged 60 weeks after being knocked down by a lorry as she returned home from the GP in 2019.

Ms Duffy was hit by a lorry as she crossed the entrance to Howarth Timber on Milnrow Road, Rochdale, on the morning of August 6. She sustained multiple injuries and severe grazing and was rushed to Manchester Royal Infirmary for treatment.

Just under two weeks later the great-grandmother developed sepsis and deteriorated rapidly, dying on August 20.
