‘Extraordinary’ daughter’ who brought light

THE family of one of three young Irish women on board the Air France airliner spoke yesterday of their heartbreak at the loss of their daughter.

Eithne Walls, 28, from Ballygowan, Co Down, and her friends Aisling Butler, from Roscrea, Co Tipperary, and Jane Deasy, from Dublin, also aged in their 20s, were returning from holiday in Brazil.

Ms Walls’s parents, Raymond and Mary, paid tribute to their daughter.
