Tributes continue to be paid for a mum-of-two who died two weeks after an alleged assault at her home.
Linda Costello, 54, was reportedly assaulted at her home at The Tower apartment block in Graiguecullen, County Carlow.
Gardaí and emergency services attended the domestic residence on Bridge Street shortly after 6am on Thursday, March 26.
Ms Costello was transferred to St Luke’s General Hospital Carlow Kilkenny and subsequently to Beaumont Hospital for treatment of serious injuries.
She died from her injuries on Friday, April 10.
A statement from An Garda Síochána confirmed that a man in his 40s had been arrested in relation to the assault but was since released, with a file sent to the DPP (Director of Public Prosecutions).
Her death notice reads that she is survived by her children Ben and Amy, and their father Larry, as well as her parents Ronnie and Patricia, sister Samantha and brother-in-law Keith.
Funeral arrangements will be revelaed later in the week.
In the condolences section, messages of tribute have been posted with one sharing: ‘I will always hold lovely memories of Linda, from her sense of fun, our laughs, her high heels, our shopping trips to Newbridge and Dundrum.
‘She was always so kind. Thinking of her family and many friends at this very sad and difficult time.’
