Mass of the Angels for Zoe and Ella

TWO little sisters, who grew up together, played together and died together in a family tragedy, were laid to rest together yesterday.

Their devastated mum, Una Butler, watched as the two white coffins containing the remains of her daughters, Zoe, six, and Ella, two, were carried into their local church in Ballycotton, Co Cork, for a Mass of the Angels.

Their remains had made the short trip from the family home, where Una had cradled and kissed them upon their return on Thursday.
