THE man who tragically died on Lough Erne last weekend will be laid to rest tomorrow (Friday).
The late Declan Ryan, of Kentstown, County Meath, will be buried in Mountbolus Cemetery, Offaly following Requiem Mass in Kentstown.
It is understood that Mr. Ryan was involved in a tragic accident involving a jet ski on Lough Erne on Saturday afternoon.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "Police can confirm that the body of a man was recovered from the River Erne, close to the Cloonatrig Road at Bellanaleck, in Co. Fermanagh, on Saturday, April 3.
"Officers together with other emergency services attended the scene following a report at around 3.40pm of an incident involving a jet ski.
"Police are not treating the death as suspicious at this time."
A Northern Ireland Ambulance Service spokesman said two emergency crews and an ambulance officer had been dispatched to the incident site.
The Charity Air Ambulance, with a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service crew on board, was also scrambled to the riverside location.
Mr. Ryan is survived by his wife, Siobhan; daughter, Mia; and the wider family circle.
