Tributes are pouring in for a “beautiful” nurse who was killed in a car crash, close to Athboy, over the Easter bank holiday weekend.
Meghan Patricia Mallee (26) was killed following a single-vehicle collision on the N51, just outside Rathmore on the outskirts of Athboy, in the early hours of Saturday morning.
