Fears raised after couple missed Sunday Mass

PATRICK Sleator was last seen when a local gave him a lift home from Moore’s pub in Grangecon on Friday night.

Neighbours became worried when his parents, Mary and John Joe Sleator, both in their 80s, did not turn up for Mass on Sunday, which was very uncharacteristic for the religious couple.

Mary was a retired primary school teacher and had taught in the Dunlavin Primary School 8km from their home.
