WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE OMAGH BOMB MEMORIAL GARDEN

Voice of the people: What do you think of the Omagh bomb memorial garden?

Claire Corrigan -I think it's good to have something to remember the bomb but the money could have been spent on something better. Having a memorial right where the bomb happened could be difficult for the families.
Declan McAleer - I think it is a great monument to those who died or were injured in the bomb and it is very disrespectful causing any controversy over it. I think it's money well spent.
Megan Dees -I think it's a lovely bright tribute, especially the way that each victim has their own mirror adds a very personal touch. It's a really nice way to remember those who died.
Nicola McKane - The idea to reflect the light is very impressive and I think it's a lovely way to have a permanent memory of those who were killed. It's good to finally have something to mark the spot where the bomb happened.
Anne McAleer -I find it a bit odd looking but it is nice for the bereaved families to have a place dedicated to their loved ones.
Neil Byrne -1 think it's a good idea but it could turn into a place for young people to drink at the weekend or be a place for vandalism.
