The funeral of Aoife Beary, one of the survivors of the Berkeley balcony collapse, will take place in Dublin this morning.

The 27 year-old passed away last Saturday at Beaumont Hospital after suffering a stroke.

She was one of seven people who were seriously injured after a fourth-floor balcony she was standing on with friends gave way.

Six people, mostly Irish students, were killed during the incident in California on June 16th 2015.

They had travelled to the US on J-1 working visas and were celebrating Ms Beary’s 21st on the night of the tragedy.

Her funeral will be held in the church of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour in Foxrock at 10am.

The mass will be followed by cremation in Newlands Cross Crematorium.
