Frank’s ashes to be spread at special location
In his blockbuster Angela’s Ashes, McCourt told of walking to Carrigogunnell Castle near Clarina as a teenager and seeing a beautiful girl and the effect she had on him.
At the unveiling of a bronze bust to McCourt in Limerick last evening, his actor brother Malachy said: “I have brought some of his ashes and we will spread them tomorrow at Carrigogunnell. With the unveiling of this statue of Frank at Leamy’s school where we were taught as children, Limerick is making amends and Limerick is saying ‘welcome back Frank’.”
