Family support ‘will ease the pain’
Visiting St Michael’s Loreto Secondary School, Bishop Smith said the pain of their loss would be with them for the rest of their lives. But he also said he believed the support and solidarity of family and community would help ease the suffering. “People always question their faith when something like this happens but we all have to come to terms with painful loss in our lives.
“In time people will come to realise the gift of life that their child was and that will ease the pain of their loss.”
