Gardaí Name All Six Victims Of Plane Crash
The names of all six victims of Thursday's plane crash have today been released by Gardaí.
Yesterday saw the funerals of two of the Northern Ireland victims of the Cork air crash. Brendan McAleese, 39, a general manager of a company in Cookstown, and Pat Cullinan, a 45-year-old senior partner with accountancy firm KPMG were both laid to rest in the respective towns of Tannaghmore near Kells in Co Antrim and Cranagh near Plumbridge in Co Tyrone.
This morning, Gardaí issued a statement revealing the names of the other victims of the crash; Jordi Sola Lopez, Manresa, Barcelona, aged 31 years; Patrick Gerard Cullinan, Malone Road, Belfast 45 years; Brendan McAleese, Kells, Co. Antrim 39 years; Richard Kenneth Nobles, Jordanstown, Belfast 48 years; Andrew John Cantle, Sunderland 27 years; and Joseph Michael Evans, Belfast 51 years.
Meanwhile, four people remain in a serious but stable condition at Cork University Hospital following last Thursday's crash. A spokeswoman for the Health Service Executive said the four being treated are likely to remain there for some time.
They are Heather Elliott, who is originally from Kinsale in Co Cork and now lives in Belfast; Peter Cowley from Glanmire in Co Cork; Brendan Mallon from Bangor in Co Down; and Mark Dickens from Watford in England.
Yesterday, hundreds including politicians, clergy, airline officials and rescue services personnel gathered at tribute to the six victims of the air disaster at the Church of the Assumption in Ballyphehane — the home parish of Cork Airport.
An eruption of applause broke out when tributes were paid to the emergency services without whom, the congregation was told, more than six lives would have been lost last Thursday.
