Three people killed in an accident in Donegal have been buried today.
Triúr a maraíodh i dtimpiste i nDún na nGall curtha inniu.
The man and two children killed in a road accident in Inishowen last Thursday night were buried in Donegal today.
Adhlacadh i nDún na nGall inniu an fear agus an bheirt pháistí a maraíodh i dtionóisc bhóthair in Inis Eoghain oíche Déardaoin seo caite.
The three were killed when their cars went out of control, down a slope and into Lough Foyle in Ardnacran, Quigley Point.
Maraíodh an triúr nuair a chuaigh a ngluaisteán ó smacht, síos le fána agus isteach i Loch Feabhail in Ard an Chrainn, Rinn Uí Choigligh.
They were John Mullan, 49, his six-year-old daughter Amelia, and his fourteen- year-old stepson Thomas.
Bin iad John Mullan, 49 bliain, a iníon Amelia, sé bliana, agus a leasmhac Tomás a bhí ceithre bliana déag.
They were from Bunaphobal.
Bas Bun an Phobail iad.
The mother of two, Geraldine Mullan, was also in the car but managed to get out of it.
Bhí máthair na beirte leanaí, Geraldine Mullan, sa charr freisin ach déirigh léi teacht amach aisti.
At Funeral Mass at St. Pius X Church in Bunaphobal today, Geraldine’s father, Martin Connaughton, thanked the emergency services for rescuing her and for what they had done at the scene of a disaster that night.
Ag Aifreann na sochraide i Séipéal Naomh Pius X i mBun an Phobail inniu, ghabh athair Geraldine, Martin Connaughton, buíochas leis na seirbhísí éigeandála as í a thabhairt slán agus as an méid a rinne siad ar láthair tubaiste an oíche sin.
He particularly praised a local man, Conor McDaid, who saw the car’s lights in the water and called the emergency services.
Mhol sé go háirithe fear áitiúil, Conor McDaid, a chonaic soilse an chairr san uisce agus a chuir fios ar na seirbhísí éigeandála.
Thomas was in the Sea Scouts and members of the organization gave a guard of honor to the coffins of the three at the church.
Bhí Tomás sna Gasóga Mara agus thug comhaltaí na heagraíochta garda onóra do chónraí an triúir ag an séipéal.
Nurses from Letterkenny Hospital, where Geraldine works, members of the Gaelic Athletic Association and local schoolchildren were also among the crowd that came to the church.
Bhí altraí ó Ospidéal Leitir Ceanainn, mar a bhfuil Geraldine ag obair, baill de Chumann Lúthchleas Gael agus daltaí scoile áitiúla i measc an tslua a tháinig chuig an séipéal chomh maith.
