Speaking at his funeral Mass yesterday, Mr Byrne's daughter Suzy said medical and catering staff who cared for her father throughout his illness spoke of him as "a Dub and one of our own".

She thanked the staff at the Mater Hospital, saying that "to say that they brightened our journey would be an understatement" with "quips of Dublin humour that made us smile."

Saying a final goodbye to her dad, Suzy added: "Thank you most of all for being you," quoting Brendan Kennelly's tribute to Gay Byrne.
