Martin Cheshire, owner of car dealerships in Fermanagh and Tyrone and the security firm Samdec Ltd, posted a tribute to Sean Kelly of Enniskillen. Kelly worked for the firm and died suddenly last Thursday.

Cheshire first met Kelly 12 years ago for vehicle repairs. Kelly served as mechanic and lorry driver. The pair travelled across the UK transporting cars and vans.

Cheshire called Kelly a loyal employee and key contributor to Oakfield Car Sales. All colleagues at Samdec Ltd will miss his presence.

Cheshire joined Kelly's wife Siobhan and son Michael for the ferry trip bringing his remains home.

Kelly leaves his wife Siobhan, five children and two grandchildren. He also leaves several brothers and sisters.

Funeral Mass takes place Tuesday at 11am at St Mary's Church in Arney. Burial follows in the adjoining cemetery.
