A community has been left numbed and a family shattered by losing three members in a road crash, a priest has told their funeral in Co Tipperary.
The funeral took place at St John the Baptist church in Cashel of Tom and Bridget Reilly and their three-year-old grandson Tom, who died in the single vehicle incident last Tuesday.
The tragedy occurred just days after four young people lost their lives in a separate crash in Clonmel, also in Tipperary.
Father Enda Brady said road deaths were not just numbers, and behind every statistic there is a face, a personality and an individual.
Irish president Michael D Higgins was among the mourners and Father Brady said the support he had given people in Tipperary in the past week “will never be forgotten”.
