Tributes have been flooding in for an East Belfast lollipop man who was a "shining example of community spirit, love and joy and a true source of inspiration".
Sam Martin was the crossing guard at Greenwood Primary School for over 20 years and passed away peacefully in his home on January 21.
A "beloved husband" and "devoted grandfather", Sam was adored by the generations of pupils and parents he encountered every day as he came to work.
