Hundreds came out tonight to pay tribute to the victims of Thursday's road tragedy in Co Tyrone.
Friday night saw a vigil held in Strabane for the family members who lost their lives on Thursday morning, when the minivan in which they were travelling collided with a lorry near Aughnacloy.
Three family members - named locally as Strabane natives Dan McKane, Christine McKane and their aunt Julia McSorley – died in the horror crash, with four other members of the family requiring hospital treatment.

The vigil took place at the Grotto in Strabane, with hundreds of people coming out to remember the victims and show support to the McKane and McSorley families.
Mourners filled the Grotto on Friday evening, while more lined the surrounding streets.
A moment of silence was observed and a candle was lit for each of the victims.
Local priest Father Declan Boland thanked those in attendance.
"Your presence here this evening is deeply appreciated," he told the congregation.
He added: "We’re all at a loss of what to say, how to respond but we respond in the deepest way possible. We gather together as a community of faith!"
Father Boland expressed condolences to the family on behalf of the community in Strabane.
"We’re standing in silent solidarity this evening with the McKane family, that they may not be overwhelmed by their loss," he said.
A mass was also held in Aughnacloy in memory of the victims.
The incident has sparked calls from politicians and community figures that the A5 road, where the incident occurred, is upgraded and made safer.
