Good news for Kerry kids after parent double tragedy as they could stay in family home thanks to fundraiser

Four young brothers who asked for help buying their family home after both parents died within months of each other have received some good news as a fundraiser has smashed its goal.

Elaine Clifford and her husband Padraig both passed away within six months of each other leaving behind five-year-old Conor and his brothers Andrew, eight, Jack, 14, and Patrick, 21.

Padraig, 46, died in January after battling cancer. His death came just five months after his wife Elaine tragically died from the same illness just one day before her 41st birthday.
