Sadness at death of Derry Republican Gerard McCartney.
There was sadness across Derry this morning as people learned of the death of well known Republican Gerry McCartney.
Announcing Gerry's death, Derry Sinn Fein said: "Lifelong Republican Gerard 'Gerry' McCartney passed away this morning.
"We shall gather at the Shantallow Monument at 1.30pm today [Saturday] to meet his remains. May he Rest In Peace."
Paying tribute to Gerry, his brother Raymond - former Blanket man and Sinn Féin MLA - said: "As a family, we are all heartbroken for Eileen, Una, Deirdre, Fionnula and Mairead, his sons-in-law, John, Eoghan and Ciaran, and grandchildren.
"Anyone who knew Gerard will know that he loved his family, and all that Eileen and Gerard ever strove for was that their children and their grand children would enjoy opportunities and hopes denied to their generation.
