The family of this tourist killed with his pal in a smash on Ireland’s busiest motorway have broken their silence – to thank gardai and bikers for their help and kindness.
“I would just like to get across how amazing the Irish police and the biking community have been,” the daughter of Brian McFarlane told The Mirror last night – as dozens of motorcyclists came from all over Ireland to attend his cremation service in Dublin.
The service for Mr McFarlane, who was 63 and from the Oxfordshire village of Sutton Courtenay, came almost seven weeks after he and pal Paul Ingram, 59, were killed in a horror crash on the M50.
