The widow of helicopter captain Mark Duffy has expressed her thanks to the public for their "generous and compassionate actions" since his death.
Captain Duffy and three other crew members died when Irish Coast Guard helicopter Rescue 116 crashed off the Mayo Coast on 14 March this year.
Hermione Duffy gave her thanks in an email to the Dundalk Democrat, writing "a thank you seems inadequate for all that you did and continue to do".
She added: "I would like to thank the people and communities of Blackrock, Dundalk, Cooley, Louth, Newry and Warrenpoint, South Armagh and Down, nationally especially Mayo and beyond, sincerely, for your kind, generous and compassionate actions since Mark's tragic loss with the crew of Rescue 116."
