"Chloe McGee (23) and Shay Duffy (21), both from Carrickmacross, Co Monaghan, Mr McCluskey and Dylan Commins (23), both from Drumconrath, Meath, and Chloe Hipson (21), from Lanarkshire in Scotland, all died on Saturday evening. They were travelling together in a Volkswagen Golf on their way to Dundalk for a night out. A sixth person who was in the car, also aged in his 20s, was taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries and has since been discharged."
"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."
A road traffic accident last Saturday in Co Louth killed five young people, including 23-year-old teacher Chloe McGee. Chloe McGee had recently returned from a holiday in Dubai with her boyfriend and had just been made permanent at Ó Fiaich Institute. Mourners described her as a bubbly character with infectious laughter at Saint Joseph's Church, Carrickacross, Co Monaghan. The other victims included Shay Duffy (21), Alan McCluskey, Dylan Commins (23), and Chloe Hipson (21) from Lanarkshire. They were travelling together in a Volkswagen Golf to Dundalk for a night out; a sixth passenger in his twenties sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was discharged from hospital. Funeral attendees included President Catherine Connolly and senior Garda officers, and personal items representing Chloe's life were placed at the service.
