Priest tells young people to ‘talk to each other and pray for Áine’

NUMBED young people mourning a victim of the horror road accident in Co Kerry were yesterday told by a priest to talk to each other and share their sorrow.

Tearful classmates and friends turned out in large numbers in Castleisland for the funeral of Áine Riordan, 16, the first of the four teenage victims to be laid to rest.

Third and sixth-year students and staff from the local St Joseph’s Secondary School, where she was a student, formed a guard of honour as her remains were brought from her home to Castleisland parish church about 45 minutes prior to her funeral Mass.
