Another message said, "To Elaine , Dermot , Callum, Dylan , her grandparents, family and wide circle of friends I wish you the strength of each other over the coming days and months. Róisín was a truly beautiful person with a humble and positive outlook on life. I have such fond memories of her in school,

"Her smile and laughter from the back of the class , her navy jacket she wore in the mornings while she shared her maths and English homework with us and the light hearted eye rolls and head shakes at all our messing . I was glad to hear that Róisín had achieved her dream of working in Pfizer, following the steps of Elaine.

"One of her goals she talked about throughout school that she successfully achieved. Unfortunately it is times like this that we reflect on the special people like Róisín we grew up around. Her smile, intelligence, drive and kindness will be so fondly remembered by everyone she made a lasting impact upon. Rest in peace Róisín you have earned your rest in heaven".
