Applause rang through the town centre as the funeral cortege of well known businessman and champion of the town, Bob Clark, paused outside the town hall.
And, as a moving gesture of respect, Padiham firefighters also lined the route and had an engine with blue lights flashing.
More people stood to pay their respects as the cortege made its way through the town to St Leonard s Church for the funeral service which was conducted by the Rev Kit Walker.
