Mark O'Connor, Louise Doherty O'Connor and Evan O'Connor
The funeral of a Louth family who passed away in tragic circumstances will take place in Dundalk this morning.
Mark O'Connor (54), Louise Doherty O'Connor (56) and their son Evan O'Connor (27) were found dead at their home in the Drumgowna area on Monday, September 29.
The funeral mass will take place in St. Patrick’s Cathedral (A91 T623) at 11am. Private cremations will follow.
Those in attendance at the O’Connor family’s funeral, are requested to wear odd socks in honour of one of Evan's individualistic traits.
In lieu of sending flowers, the family have requested that donations be made to The Hub Praxis Care in Drogheda and Drogheda ABACUS School, reflecting Mark and Louise's care and generosity to others and the inspiration to many that Evan had become in his short but full life.
A donation can be made by following this link to a dedicated fundraising page: https://gofund.me/66e272ef3.
