Summary

Alex Coughlan, beloved son, brother, and rugby fanatic, died tragically at 38 after an assault in Dublin — a loss that shattered a community. Two teens now face serious charges. His funeral became a vibrant, joy-filled tribute, where family, fans, and even hospital staff honored him with music, laughter, and a guard of honor singing “Ireland’s Call.” Rugby memorabilia, Ninja Turtle toys, and his favorite Jameson whiskey marked the service, as mourners from across Ireland sang his anthem one last time — proving his light still shines through every memory, every song, every heart he touched.
