Families gather for Berkeley tragedy vigil; funerals to begin today
Relatives and dozens of fellow Irish students have gathered at a church for a vigil remembering four of the six young people killed in the California balcony collapse.
Hearses carried the four metal coffins into St Columba Catholic Church in Oakland and about 15 of the victims’ immediate family members huddled together in the rectory for about an hour before entering the church for the viewing that was limited to relatives, friends and fellow students.
