‘He was always there for us’

THE mother of the Irishman who died in the capsized boat tragedy in Bahrain last week has expressed concern that his body may not be brought back to Ireland for burial.

Mae Cunningham from Drogheda, Co Louth said she was still unaware of funeral arrangements for her son, Derek.

Mr Cunningham, 52, is one of 58 people who are confirmed as drowned after a pleasure cruiser overturned last Thursday.
