Mourners pay their respects to Flor Crowley

Flor Crowley, 42, the MEP’s youngest brother, had been travelling to Mass at St Patrick’s Church in Bandon last Sunday when he was killed after his car skidded on black ice. His wife Aideen and three daughters, Ruth, Sarah and Grace, were also in the car but escaped injury.

Yesterday in the same church, the children, who are all under 11, heard glowing tributes to their father. Brian Crowley said his brother “lit up the lives of everybody he encountered”.
