Today marks two years since the Offaly school teacher was killed while out for a run.
Around 70 people have gathered in Tullamore to remember Ashling Murphy on her second anniversary.
A commemoration walk is taking place along the banks of the grand canal up to her memorial shrine.
The 23 year old Offaly school teacher was killed while out for a run on this day in 2022.
Ashling's family thanked all of those who attended, saying "it's marvelous to have the support of everyone".
These people have been reflecting on an emotional day:
Music was played at her shrine as tribute to her love of traditional Irish music:
James Hogan is the principal of Durrow National School where Ashling was a teacher.
He says days like this help inspire her colleagues to continue her work:
