Sad return to cathedral for bride of three months

A BRIDE of just over three months makes a sad return journey to St John’s Cathedral in Limerick this evening to mourn the loss of her husband.

Martin Considine and Mary McGrath, with a combined age of 169 years, became Ireland’s ‘vintage’ couple when they walked down the aisle of the same cathedral on October 22 last year. Martin, aged 83, died on Sunday in a Limerick hospital, with Mary, aged 86, at his bedside.

Martin was taken to the hospital a week ago suffering from kidney failure.
