Large Crowds Expected At Funeral Of Deemster Kerruish Today

The funeral for Deemster Kerruish will take place today.

The 61 year old died in the Isle of Man Hospice after a long battle with illness.

Since he died last Wednesday tributes have been flooding in.

Deemster Mike Kerruish was the Chief Judge of the Island's High Court of Justice.

His funeral will be taking place at Lonan Church today at midday.

He was an extremely popular Manxman and with this in mind large crowds are expected.
With this in mind a Local Farmer and the Lonan Church Wardens have made available surrounding fields, which can be used to park in.

It's anticipated that there will be delays around the area before and after the service so anyone thinking of attending  is urged to leave themselves plenty of time to get there.
