Frank Lampard bid an emotional farewell to his beloved mother at her funeral today. The Chelsea Star helped to carry Pat Lampard's coffin, following her death from pneumonia last month.
The 58-year-old was admitted to a London hospital and her son missed Premier League games home and away to be at her bedside. Frank was joined by his wife Elen Rives and various team mates including John Terry and Ashley Cole as he paid his last respects at St Margaret's Church in Barking.
His father, Frank Lampard senior, carried a single red rose in honour of his late wife. Pat's sister, Sandra, broke down and was comforted by her husband, Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp and their son Jamie.
A handwritten card sat on a bouquet of flowers from the 29-year-old England star, which read: “To my darling mum. You are my everything.
“My mum and my best friend. All I have done and all I will do in my life is to make you proud. “I hope I have. I will think of you every minute of every day.
