Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and in line with government and church guidelines the funeral will be strictly private.

The late Mr. Dallat's neighbours, however, will have an opportunity to line the roads of rural Kilrea while maintaining social distance in order to pay their respects. The funeral will pass from his Gortmacrane Road home along the Boveedy Road from 11.30 a.m. tomorrow.

A memorial Mass will be celebrated at a later date enabling wider family circle and friends an opportunity to celebrate John’s life.
