Brother will recall Meg’s life as she is laid to rest

THE brother of murdered, mother of one, Meg Walsh, will today tell mourners at her funeral about the 35-year-old’s life and thank all those who took part in the search for her.

James Walsh and Meg’s daughter Sasha last night stood by her coffin as hundreds of mourners filed past for over two hours at a north Cork hospital.

The 35-year-old’s coffin was closed and upon it there was a photograph of her. At 7pm, the mourners gathered inside and outside the small mortuary chapel fell silent as prayers were said over the coffin. It was then carried to the waiting hearse by relatives and friends.
