THE funeral is taking place this morning for the Derry woman who died after a three-vehicle collision on the Glenshane Pass last week.

Loreto Douglas (64) had been travelling to a funeral on Wednesday morning last when the collision, involving two vans and a car, occurred near the Ponderosa Bar on the main Derry to Belfast road.

She was airlifted to hospital but later died from her injuries.

Ms Douglas will be buried from the church where she once served as a nun.

Her remains will be taken from her home at 9.30 am for 10 Requiem Mass in the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Thornhill.
