Friends express shock and sadness at sudden death of Ben Morrow

MANY tributes have been paid to a young man whose body was found in a cemetery in Co Derry.

Police investigating the death of the man on Friday, December 30, named locally as Ben Morrow, say they are not treating it as suspicious.

The entrance to Enagh Cemetery in Limavady was sealed off, after council workers discovered the remains of Ben, known on Facebook as ‘Ben Big Beef Morrow Gyk’

Over the past number of days friends have taken to social media to express their shock and sadness at Ben’s tragic passing.

One wrote: “Cant believe wat i just heard RIP Ben Big-beef Morrow Gyk.

“I was only chatting to u last nite u looked happy man bt u never know wat goes on inside.

“Flly high buddy til we met again.”

One of them wrote: “Still can’t get my head around this.

“Ben was one of the most nicest and down-to-earth boys out there.

“He was so easy to talk to and was always there for me.

“I honestly can’t believe he’s gone. I’m so devastated.”

Another friend added: “Can’t believe I woke up to hear the news. It is actually heartbreaking hearing you are gone. Rest easy.”

A PSNI spokesman said: “Police attended the sudden death of a male in the Scroggy Road area of Limavady on the morning of Friday December 30.

“At this time, the death is not being treated as suspicious.”

Ben is survived by his mum Linsley, dad Darren, and brother Riley.

Funeral arrangements later, say local funeral directors O’Brien & McGrotty.
