Family of missing Offaly woman to lay wreath in memory
The family and friends of missing Offaly woman Fiona Pender will lay a wreath in her memory today.
It's 16 years since the 25-year-old pregnant hairdresser dissapeared from her flat on Church street in Tullamore.
Just over a year before she vanished, Fiona's brother Mark was killed in a motorcycle accident.
Her father Sean took his own life in 2000 -- a death her mother Josephine attributes to his heartbreak over the loss of his children: "It gets worse because you're left with everything to deal with and it's gone on so long."
