Mourners remember Cumbria solicitor
Kevin Joseph Commons, 60, was the second of 12 victims in Bird's rampage through west Cumbria last Wednesday.
Mr Commons, though understood to be an intensely private man, was a well-known figure locally in west Cumbria because of his legal practice. He was also the Bird family solicitor, being a good friend of the killer's twin, David.

Canon John Kelly, a retired vicar known to Mr Commons' family, said: "The sheer magnitude of what happened on that fateful day defies belief."
