Mr Moore s daughters shared harrowing details from the night of the crash, as well as the five months of medical uncertainty and bedside vigils as he fought for his life, sometimes communicating by blinking.
They also told how they could not honour their father’s wish to be buried in Ireland with his wife due to the pandemic.
Their mother had already passed away when Mr Moore, 62, of Runcorn, died in hospital on March 11 last year, leaving them “orphans”.
Two autopsies also had to take place, leading the funeral directors not to look at the body before he was cremated due to the deterioration of the body in the time elapsed.
