David Hallahan died when his car entered the water of the Grand Canal near Kilmeague


Delivery driver Jason Hallahan, aged in his 40s, of Prosperous and Clondalkin, was taken from the water and treated by paramedics but was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Suzuki Swift vehicle was later removed from the canal with the assistance of Garda divers.
Mr Hallahan is deeply regretted by his loving daughter Evelyn, partner Sharon, mother Patricia, father Seamus, uncles, aunts, cousins and a large circle of friends.
A Celebration of Life Service will take place on Monday, December 30 in Newlands Cross Crematorium Chapel at 2:30pm, followed by cremation.
