The funeral sacrifice of a newly-wedded couple has taken place in the same church they got married in a marriage that didn't last for more than a period of two weeks.
The unfortunate couple during their marriage
A newlywed couple who drowned on their honeymoon were remembered by family and friends yesterday at the same church where they married just two weeks ago.
John Rodgers, 28, and his wife Lynette, 26, drowned on October 23 after getting caught in a riptide at Plettenberg Bay, South Africa.
The couple had married at the First Presbyterian Church in Holywood, Co Down on October 17, but yesterday, just two weeks and two days later, reports have it that their loved ones returned to the church to say their final goodbyes.
