Molly Dempsey from Whitehall Park, Baltinglass was pronounced dead at the scene of a fatal single vehicle crash at 5am on Sunday
A 15-year-old girl will always be remembered due to her “bubbly personality” and “smiles” mourners at her Requiem Mass heard.
A sunshine filled morning belied the shattering sadness of the Dempsey family’s enormous loss. Perched on a height above the town of Baltinglass, mourners began to gather from 10.30am at St Joseph’s Church for the teenager’s Requiem Mass. Fr Ahern said: “Molly has died with a life ahead of her and we’ll never know now what that life would have been like. Sadly that will not happen now but her bubbly personality, her singing voice, her love of animals, her sense of fun would have seen her grow into a wonderful person.
"A faith which is very much tested and leaves us asking many questions but if we thought this was the end of life for Molly I think it would be hard to take that on to realise for people of faith and to appreciate the fact that new life is open to her that will never end." He revealed that it felt for him and Miss Dempsey's family that it seemed "somewhat unreal" to be there because of Molly's death.
