The extreme sadness and grief felt by families of victims have been shared with and brought home to the people of Ireland in a powerful way, the Stardust inquests have heard.

“I speak for all of us when I sincerely thank the families for allowing us to participate in their most private and treasured memories,” coroner Dr Myra Cullinane said at the close of the pen portraits on Thursday.
