The funeral of a Ballymahon man killed in a road crash in Co Westmeath, is taking place today. Tributes have poured in for Tom Walsh since he died last week. Tom Walsh, who was aged in his 60s, died when the car he was driving collided with another car on the N55 at the Pigeons last Thursday morning at 11 o'clock. A passenger in his car and the driver of the second car, both men in their 80s, both sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
Tom has been remembered as a very quiet, unassuming gentleman, who worked in the farming sector and in Center Parcs in the past. He will be laid to rest afterwards in Kilcommock Cemetery.
