Clones funeral hears of Kiea McCann's 'caring nature'

Hundreds of people have lined the streets of Clones for the funeral of Kiea McCann. The 17-year-old was remembered as a girl with a "caring nature" who had a great sense of humour, was extremely family orientated, and enjoyed music and pool.

Kiea had hoped to study Childcare in Cavan next year after school.

Chief Celebrant, Fr John Chester, said the Largy College community is “heartbroken”. “It is a tragedy that along with their families, the management, staff and fellow students will not get to see these amazing young women express their full potential of their kind spirits and abundance of gifts," he added.

Kiea will be laid to rest in Mount St Oliver’s Cemetery.
