Creeslough: Events mark two years since Creeslough tragedy

A series of events have been held to remember the 10 victims killed in an explosion at a gas station in Creeslough, County Donegal, two years ago.

Flowers were laid at the scene of the explosion and the bells of St Michael’s Church rang out 10 times at 15:17 local time on Monday, the exact same time the tragedy took place on 7 October 2022, to remember those killed.

The 10 people who died were Robert Garwe, 50, and his five-year-old daughter Shauna Flanagan-Garwe, Catherine O’Donnell, 39, and her son James Monaghan, 13, Jessica Gallagher, 24, Martin McGill, 49, James O’Flaherty, 48, Martina Martin, 49, Hugh ‘Hughie’ Kelly, 59, and Leona Harper, 14.

A prayer service also took place at St Michael’s Church on Monday evening to pray for those killed and those impacted by the tragedy.
