Evan, Mark and Louise O'Connor
North East Runners Dundalk has paid tribute to Mark O'Connor, who was killed in his home in Drumgowna in north Louth on Monday, along with his wife Louise and son Evan.
Paying tribute to Mark on Facebook today, North East Runners Dundalk said that "it is with immense sadness and shock that our club mourns the devastating loss of our member, Mark O'Connor, and his beloved wife, Louise, and son, Evan."
The club said that "Mark joined the club in 2018 and quickly became a highly-active and valued member, competing across road, track, and cross country with enthusiasm and dedication. His commitment to the sport was an inspiration to us all.
"It was a true joy to share those miles with you, Mark. Your kindness and spirit enriched our entire community. You and your family will be deeply missed by all your club mates."
The club added that it was passing its "deepest condolences are with Mark, Louise, and Evan's extended family and friends, especially Anita and Ruth, Mark's sisters and fellow club members, during this unimaginably difficult time.
"We know this news has been deeply upsetting for everyone. We will be organising a way for members to come together and support one another in the coming days."
