‘Andrew, thank you for being the son any dad would be proud of’

Andrew Clarke, 16, died on New Year’s Eve from injuries sustained in a freak accident two days after Christmas when a car he was working on in the garage of the family home in Dublin fell on him.
His parents run the Michelin-starred l’Ecrivain restaurant on Dublin’s Baggot St and Saturday’s funeral Mass in the Boy’s Chapel at Clongowes Wood College in Kildare, where Andrew was a student, was attended by high-profile chefs including Dylan McGrath and Darina Allen.
