"During the requiem mass, Monsignor Shane McCaughey said: "Today, your hearts are broken, Kieran and Eileen, Aaron, Stephen, Nicola and all the family and friends and neighbours of Chloe. "Yet we can all say today; thank God for the life of Chloe McGee, thank God for her twenty-three years of life, thank God for her fun and her joy, for her determination to overcome obstacles and her willingness to achieve her goals, for her energy and her dancing, for her charming smile and his radiant love.""

The gifts representing Chloe's life included a family and graduation photo, car keys, a photo of Chloe and Alan, a cowboy hat, Chloe's passport, an Ó Fiaich Institute top, a hairdressing tunic and a birdhouse."
