Parents to bury tug-of-love woman after court finds marriage ‘invalid’
Timothy O’Reilly, who had two children with 22-year-old Kathleen at Riverview, Kilmallock, Co Limerick, following an “invalid” wedding ceremony, lost an application to be allowed to conduct his late wife’s funeral arrangements.
Ms Justice Elizabeth Dunne told parents Michael and Margaret McCarthy yesterday they would have responsibility for the funeral of their daughter but would have to arrange separate day-long wakes in Cork and Askeaton for both families.
