Father Dermott Donnelly will be laid to rest in Newcastle on Friday. Family and friends, including his brother TV star Declan, will gather at St Mary's Cathedral in Newcastle.

Tributes flooded in for Dec’s brother, who served with the Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle, after he sadly died aged 55 following a serious illness. Shortly before his death Fr Dermott celebrated his 30th anniversary of service to his parish and community, where he was best known for his work with young people and youth ministry.
