Gardaí and the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) are investigating the sudden death of a 64 year old man, whose body was discovered on a farm near Ardfinnan in South Tipperary on Tuesday morning last, 29th April 2025.
Emergency services were called to the scene at around 11:30am, where the man locally named as Mathew ‘Mattie’ O’Brien, was pronounced dead.
Mr O’Brien was originally from Curanna, Golden in Co Tipperary, but he had been living with his partner Catherine at The Cross, Ardfinnan, South Co. Tipperary for a number of years.
His remains have since been removed to University Hospital Waterford to undergo a post-mortem examination, which will determine the direction of any further ongoing Garda investigations.
According to Gardaí, initial findings suggest no signs of foul play and one line of their inquiry suggests that Mr O’Brien may have fallen off a roof he was repairing.
The Health and Safety Authority (HSA) were notified and they have begun an inquiry into the incident. The local coroner has also been informed, and a report is expected to be compiled for the Coroner’s Court.
Mr O’Brien is survived by his partner Catherine, brothers William, John, Dermot and Tom, sister Mary, Catherine’s three children; Catriona, James and Joseph.
The remains of Mr O’Brien will repose at Costigan’s Funeral Home, Cahir, Co. Tipperary on Friday evening next, May 2nd, from 6:00pm until 7:30pm.
Requiem Mass for Mr O’Brien will be celebrated on Saturday May 3rd, at 2:00pm in St. Mary’s Church, Cahir, followed by interment in the adjoining graveyard.
