Rescue 116 anniversary mass deferred due to Covid-19

It is three years since Captain Dara Fitzpatrick, Captain Mark Duffy, and winch men Ciarán Smith and Paul Ormsby lost their lives on the 14 March 2017.

An anniversary mass for the Rescue 116 crew, killed when their helicopter crashed off County Mayo has had to be cancelled this evening.

The memorial service has been deferred because of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak but will be rescheduled for a later date.
