Three victims of Omagh bombing remembered at inquiry The Omagh bombing denied its victims the opportunity to fulfil their potential and meet new generations of their families, an inquiry has been told.
Reading a statement on behalf of his mother, Brenda’s brother Cathal Logue said the bombing caused “irreversible emotional damage” to the family.
“Little did we know then that our home town of Omagh, where Jolene had attended school, had a part-time job, was learning to drive, socialised and shopped, would be the actual place where she would be denied all of her hopes and dreams, of her bright future.”.
In a statement read out on behalf of Jolene’s mother Bridie, the inquiry was told of the teenager’s strong academic and sporting abilities.
The inquiry heard statements from the families of Brenda Logue and Jolene Marlow, both 17-year-old girls killed in the attack, together with 54-year-old Brian McCrory.
