Tributes to Irish man who drowned on holiday in Greece (Belfast Live)

"Losing him is like I've lost a brother, not one of us can process it, it's a complete shock and I can't believe he's gone."

"I have no doubt when we look at the sky at night, we will see a moon and it will be in the shape of his smile - but maybe not quite as bright as his. One of Cian's best friends, Kirsty Fallon, told Galway Beo that Cian "never, ever stopped smiling" and that their friend group has been crushed following the news. Tributes have been flowing in for Cian who was a well-known figure around Tirellan Heights and Baile An Chóiste in the Castlegar area despite growing up in Mayo with his grandparents when he was younger.
