Conor, the much-loved brother of Aoibhin and Matthew, cherished grandson of Carmel and Laurence, and the late Bridget and Pat. Deeply regretted and lovingly remembered by his heartbroken parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, extended family, neighbours and friends.

The Requiem Mass will be streamed live via the webcam at the Church Services Stranorlar website.
