A young Limerick man who died in a road crash last weekend was “loving, unique, kind, and effervescent”, his heartbroken mother told his funeral mass on Friday.
Julie Buckley paid a loving tribute to her “funny, precious”, son Luke, 20, who she said had “blessed” his family with laughter, joy, and warm hugs.
A talented goalkeeper with the South Liberties hurling club, Mr Buckley died when his car left a road and struck a wall close to Ballyneety, Co Limerick, as he drove home from work, around 12.40am, last Monday morning.
