Fears grow for elderly woman missing in Italy
Retired physiotherapist Máiréad Geary, 82, was visiting Lake Maggiore in the Piedmont region with members of an active retirement group when she was last seen last Friday afternoon. Ms Geary had worked in the Mid-Western Regional Hospital and Croom orthopaedic hospital before her retirement.
The alarm was raised after she failed to return to a hotel in the town of Stresa last Friday. Her two sons travelled from Limerick to help the operation.
