Mayor of Derry and Strabane has opened a book of condolence for Amy Doherty

Mayor McHugh said the Book of Condolence was an opportunity for the public to express their condolence and grief and show support to Amy's family and friends. He said: "I am deeply shocked and saddened by the tragic loss of this young woman, whose life was taken so violently this weekend. On behalf of the people of Derry and surrounding areas, I would like to extend the heartfelt sympathy & condolences to her family and loved ones during this unimaginably difficult time. No words can ease the pain of such a loss, but please be assured that the community stands with you in grief, support, and solidarity. We all mourn together, and our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. A Book of Condolence in the Guildhall and online provides the local community with an opportunity to come together in compassion, to support one another, and to honour her memory in the days ahead.
