A father of one who was found dead in prison on Christmas Day was remembered as “jolly” and “fun” at his funeral mass, which was held in his native Limerick City.
Michael Knapp Ryan, 30s, and one of ten siblings from St Munchin’s Street, St Mary’s Park, Limerick, died at Limerick Prison last Sunday.
Mr Knapp Ryan, who had a number of convictions including for violent disorder, is understood to have complained of feeling unwell to fellow inmates before he collapsed and died.
