‘It’s a tragedy. It’s hard to make sense of what happened’

IT was meant to be a day which would finish with one of the simple joys of family life for Brian and Mary Keegan and their two young sons.

They were due to attend a production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves in a local school last evening in which the eldest boy, Glen, had a part.

But instead of the couple and their other son Andrew sharing in a communal celebration, Brian Keegan was left to face the horror of a terrible tragedy after his wife and two children suffered violent deaths in their home at Killakee Walk in Firhouse.
