Separate burials for Cork twins who died in London

Reclusive Irish twin brothers who died within weeks of each other in London are to be buried separately.

The funeral arrangements for the late Bill and John Kelly, 77, originally from north Cork and who were facing burial in a pauper’s grave unless family came forward, were confirmed yesterday.

John, who died in London in January, was cremated in London on Tuesday. His ashes are to be interred with his mother’s remains in London.
