Newlyweds Shane McCrudden and Sinead Doogan were in Rome for the election of Pope Leo XIV.
The Killybegs couple got married last Saturday at St Mary of the Visitation Church, with the reception taking place afterwards at An Chúirt Hotel in Gweedore. Then it was off to Rome, where the succession plans for the late Pope Francis, who passed away last month, were underway.
Shane and Sinead, a dental nurse with the HSE based in Ballshannon, were wished well by the Killybegs Coast Guard.
“Our former Officer In Charge, Shane McCrudden, will marry the love of his life, Sinead Doogan,” they posted before the wedding. “Shane has held many roles in the Killybegs Coast Guard Station, but today will obtain the role of husband, one which we have no doubt that he will relish and cherish with vigour and enthusiasm as he has always done.
“We would like to wish them both a lifetime of love, good health and happiness together with the love of their lives, their daughter Rosie.
