Hundreds paid their respects to a massively popular builder at a huge funeral filled with colour, song and beautiful tributes.
Dad-of-two and granddad-of-four Mike O’Brian - who was as proud of his Cardiff and Swansea upbringing in Wales as his Irish heritage - died of a heart attack two weeks ago at the age of 44.
His funeral took place on Thursday with more than 20 luxury cars forming a cortège at the Cardiff Oratory church in Splott before Mike was buried at Western Cemetery in Ely, Wales Online reports.
