The only son of award- winning restaurateurs Derry and Sallyanne Clarke was laid to rest amid emotional scenes on Saturday.

‘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.
