Thoughts of stricken families turn to each other at tragic time

THE thoughts of two grief-stricken families were with each other yesterday as they buried three young car crash victims and prayed for another passenger injured in the same accident who remains in a serious condition in hospital.

The funerals took place of brother and sister Tom and Mary Frewen, and their friend Paul Geary, who were killed last Monday near Abbeyleix, while returning home from the Oxegen concert.

Wreaths from The Who’s Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey, who had played at the concert, were brought to the requiem masses by a friend of the band, Jack Lyons.
