Family to bury young victim of trawler sinking

The funeral is due to take place today of Kevin Kershaw, who died when a fishing trawler sank off the coast of County Cork last week.

The 21-year-old, who was originally from Dublin, had been living in Cork, and was on his first fishing trip when the Tit Bonhomme went down near Union Hall Harbour.

It is expected the bodies of two Egyptian fishermen who were also on board, will be returned to Egypt this week.

A search operation is continuing for two fishermen who are still missing.
