FAMILY AND friends of Paul Davey gathered at St. Mary’s Church, Killenaule, Tipperary on Friday to bid farewell to the 21-year-old man who died tragically last month.

Mr. Davey had been reported missing at the beginning of November from the New Ross area. Searches had taken place but were unsuccessful until last week when his body was recovered from the River Barrow.

Originally from Tipperary, the young man was brought home for his funeral mass and burial.

He is the son of Joan and the late Paul and is survived by his sister Catherine, brothers Michael, John, Tony and Conor, grandmothers, aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, relatives, neighbours and many friends.

The Echo extends its sympathy to the bereaved.
