New York limo crash: Heartbreaking procession of grief as hundreds line up for funeral of four sisters killed



Hundreds of people flocked to mourn eight of the 20 people tragically killed in a horrific limousine crash in upstate New York last week.
Heart-wrenching scenes took place on Friday outside St. Stanislaus Roman Catholic Church in Amsterdam to mourn four sisters, three of their husbands and one a brother-in-law.
They are some of the 20 people tragically killed when the limousine crashed in Schoharie last Saturday as it headed to a brewery to celebrate one of the sister’s 30th birthday.
The combined funeral honoured the memory of Allison King, sister Abigail Jackson and her husband Adam Jackson, sister Mary Dyson and her husband Robert Dyson, sister Amy Steenburg and her husband Axel Steenburg and his older brother, Richard Steenburg.
They were the ill-fated victims of what has been the deadliest traffic accident to rock the nation in almost a decade.
