He was laid to rest this afternoon.
A family photo, a Liverpool jersey and a mobile phone were brought to the altar during the funeral of an Offaly man who died in a workplace incident.
The gifts recognise Daingean's Mark Walsh's love of his family, his favourite soccer team and tech gadgets.
He passed away on Monday morning, and mourners gathered in St. Peter and Paul's Church in Portlaoise to remember him this afternoon.
Mark's brother-in-law, Hugo, says he was a wonderful husband, father and friend:
