Cavan murder-suicide: Bishop says Castlerahan community will unite in face of family horror
“My reaction is just deep shock. Everybody is shocked, by just the suddenness and the horror of these terrible events,” Bishop O’Reilly said. “It’s just hard to believe, a family that was there is just gone, and everybody is numbed, and saddened, and traumatised really by the whole series of events.
“It’s always difficult to come to terms with the death of a child, it must be the hardest cross that any parent has to carry. The death of three children in circumstances like this is just incomprehensible and unbelievably sad.
