The funeral of the Meath man who died in last weekend's Ironman event in Cork will be held today.
Brendan Wall had been living in Solihull in the UK in recent years but was originally from Slane in Co. Meath.
He died while taking part in the rescheduled Ironman event in Youghal in east Cork last Sunday.
A post on RIP.ie says Brendan is survived by his fiancee Tina, his parents Oliver and Gertrude, one sister and two brothers.
His funeral service takes place at 1 o'clock this afternoon at the Church of St. Brigid in Grangegeeth in Co. Meath, and he'll be laid to rest afterwards in the adjoining cemetery.
Ivan Chittenden also died during the Ironman event, the 64 year old has now been cremated and ashes are being returned to his native Canada.
Meanwhile investigations into their deaths are continuing.
