THERE'S now a calm and still over Glencull and over the humble little church at Ballymacilroy, which just a few days ago became the focus of the world's attention.

Just the words I was about to use to describe my visit with my wife and two children to the grave yesterday to pay our repsects, very emotional visit and I never had the pleasure of meeting Michaela so I can't even begin to imagine what the Harte and McAreavey families are going through. Since Michaela's death I genuinely have been down and saddened but I really feel that the visit has helped to relieve this, I think it boils down to being annoyed at the fact I couldn't make it to the funeral or wake.

May I just say again sincere sympathy to the Harte and McAreavey families.

RIP Michaela.
God Bless

I would just like to stress my sincere condolences to both families also. RIP Michaela

I joined the forum to try and get into GAA wee bit more but I would also like to ask at this point, does the members think it would be wrong of me to visit St Malachys to pay my respects as both myself and my wife wanted to attend the wake but were unable to due to work commitments, I feel as if I knew Michaela, strange as it may sound and since her death I cannot stop thinking about her, her father and also John, I have shed a few tears watching the news reports and on Monday I just felt numb in work thinking about the funeral.

Do you think it would be wrong of me to do this or is it the right thing to do.

Thanks
Marty
