That is so very sad

Remarkable woman

R.I.P

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Did some amazing things, any healthy person who did what she did would suffer - God knows what she went through.

How she is not a Dame in a time where you get honours for kicking a ball around is beyond me.

RIP

 

[Seagullible]

RIP, amazing woman. If only some of the layabouts in this country had her attitude to life. Thoughts go to her family

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

She was without a doubt the most inspirational Woman in the UK. True heroine. Rest in peace Jane you will NEVER be forgotten.

 

[Nemesis]

Obviously I never knew the woman but that story has made me feel very sad this morning. It's not often I find myself agreeing with anything Kinky says but he's right-she was worthy of a high honour, far more than so many who get honoured for nothing more than having celebrity status.

An inspirational woman who just on with things.

Very brave lady

RIP

totally agree with all the above

My Mother-In-Law has a very similar condition and she has been fighting it for nearly 3 years now, and the fact that Jane Tomlinson managed to last 7 years provides inspiration to those like my Mother In Law.

I agree with Kinky, what Jane did was much more of an achievement than beating the Aussies in 2005. God we live in a screwed up world.

Agree with all those above, a truly remarkable woman. RIP.

RIP Jane

Your courage and determination really helped and inspired me in my fight against cancer and I'm sure many others across the country agree with me. Like has already been said it's a crying shame you weren't honoured more for your achievements, as it's people like you who really do make Britain great.

 

[NS Herald]

Ditto to everything said. Her courage was unique and boy did she make the most of life for her final years.

Such sad news but such an inspiration. RIP

 

[Goodfella]

Very sad, she raised an awful lot of money.

 

[glasfryn]

very brave lady,true Brit,rest in peace.

 

[Derbyshire Seagull]

A very brave lady. An inspiration to everyone.

At least she leaves behind some great achievments that her family will always be proud of. My thoughts are with them.

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Just heard the news. Terribly sad, I know its banded around so much, but she really was inspirational.

 

[Starry]

mrs starry is absolutely devastated. she only sent a card about two weeks ago remembering us as anastasia would have been going to school. truly wonderful woman. and a quite remarkable family.

there will be a minutes applause at elland road on saturday, her boy is a season ticket holder there. she didn't want a silence because "i never did anything quietly in my life"

go and donate blood and sign up for bone marrow and organ donation.

How she is not a Dame in a time where you get honours for kicking a ball around is beyond me.

RIP

Not sure if it was a Freudian slip, but BBC news presenter just said "Dame Tomlinson"

RIP Jane

Your courage and determination really helped and inspired me in my fight against cancer and I'm sure many others across the country agree with me. Like has already been said it's a crying shame you weren't honoured more for your achievements, as it's people like you who really do make Britain great.

I agree with every word. A remarkable woman who didn't give up her life without a struggle.
