The man who passed away after suffering a medical episode on Errigal Mountain has been named as Carl Henderson from Moira in County Armagh.
Mr Henderson, 48, took seriously ill while climbing the mountain on Saturday. A multi-agency operation was launched to airlift him to Letterkenny University Hospital, where he was sadly pronounced deceased.
He is being fondly remembered as a beloved husband, an incredible father and a true gentleman.
“He will always be deeply loved and remembered,” said an obituary notice.
Late of Fern Valley Close, he is survived by his wife Caroline and their three young children, Aibhilín, Rían, and Caoimhe, as well as his father-in-law, Patrick Ryan (Darlington). He was the son-in-law of the late Maeve Ryan (née Greene) of Magheralosk, Gweedore.
He is now reunited with his late mother and father, Geoffrey and Angela Henderson, his late mother-in-law, Maeve Ryan, and his late niece-in-law, Aisling.
The obituary poignantly stated, “His strength and care will continue to shape Caroline and their children, as they hold his memory close in the years to come.”
Funeral arrangements will be announced in due course.
