WHEN Jane Webster lost her son Keith in a tragic road accident earlier this year her friend Vicki Byrne proved a true friend.

Now, Jane has the chance to say "thank you," courtesy of the Bolton Evening News Bouquet of the Week.

Nominating Vicky, from Darcy Lever, Jane wrote: "She has helped me and my family through a very, very hard time after the death of my son.

"Vicki has listened to us, fed us, nursed us and cheered us up through the hardest time of our lives. She has never moaned or turned us away when we have needed a shoulder to cry on.

"I cannot begin to thank her enough. She is truly the best mate you could ask for."

Vicki was touched by this gratitude, and loved the flowers from Caroline Ward's flower and gift delivery service (0800 289 335).
