Sir Bobby Charlton's widow has left an emotional tribute to her 'dearest' husband as the 1996 World Cup hero was laid to rest.
Lady Norma Charlton left a short five-line note to the love of her life on a piece of card placed alongside flowers.
It read: 'Dearest Bobby/ Forever in my thoughts/ Forever in my heart/ All my love as always/ Norma.'
The 83-year-old followed her beloved husband's coffin into his funeral service yesterday at Manchester Cathedral.
The funeral cortege had passed Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium in front of thousands of fans as they paid their respects and said their last goodbyes to the England legend.
