Ashling Murphy's parents speak out in rare appearance

Offaly woman Ashling Murphy’s parents have spoken out in a rare interview, which some have called a “heartbreaking” tribute on TG4’s coverage of Fleadh Cheoil.

Her father, Raymond, said that one of the biggest losses for him was busy Saturday afternoons during which Ashling would often be in the front room giving music lessons.

“I’d listen to them for maybe half an hour while I was drinking a cup of tea after dinner,” he said before adding that it was lovely to hear it, “that’s gone now, none of it anymore.”
