A husband and wife from the North who died on the same day 45 years apart have been buried together, after the widow passed away as his remains lay in a morgue following exhumation.

Joseph Murphy, who was shot dead in the Troubles in the early 1970s, was exhumed last year by order of a coroner investigating the disputed circumstances of the killing.
