Lynne, who was a secretary at the Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation in Ulverscroft, which helps older people and those with disabilities, died from a heart attack.

She leaves son Jason, aged 30, and 26-year-old daughter Beki.

Cledwyn, who used sell mechanical engineering products, says his Christian faith has really helped him deal with the loss of Lynne.

He said: "I didn't realise it was possible to miss anyone as much as I miss her.

"But I believe the inner strength I've found has come from my faith - because I know she's in a better place."
