Tributes have been paid to Irish woman Aoife Tobin after her death following a lung cancer diagnosis at just 28.
Bray woman Aoife, who had been living in Laois, died at home after a brave battle with cancer which saw both communities rally together to help her fight the disease.
Aoife previously worked as bar manager at Abbeyleix Golf Club where her partner and father are both members, Laois Live reports.

"So sad to lose a beautiful lady, who lit up the bar in her time there. Matt our hearts go out to you, sleep peacefully Aoife," a member of the club replied to the statement.
