The family of Dublin man, John Pender, who was stabbed to death in a Spanish pub have said that he will be "very sadly missed".
The dad-of-two from Shankill died after an attack in a pub toilet while he was on holiday with his family in Fuengirola, near Malaga.
The incident took place in the early hours of Friday, June 21 and a man was arrested on suspicion of murdering the charity worker.
Mr Pender was on holiday with his wife Caroline McGuigan, founder of charity Suicide or Survive, and their two children Conor, 21, and 18-year-old Amy who were not in the pub at the time.
A post on Irish obituary site rip.ie said that he would be "very sadly missed by his loving and heartbroken" family.
The post reads: "PENDER John (tragically and suddenly while on holidays in Spain) (late of Shankill, Dublin 18, and formerly of St. Fintan’s Villas, Deansgrange) June 21st, 2019.
"Beloved husband of Caroline (McGuigan) and loving dad of Conor and Amy, son of Sean and the late Bernadette.
"He will be very sadly missed by his loving and heartbroken wife, children, dad, brother Stephen, sister Christine, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, uncles, aunts, nephews nieces, relatives, neighbours and a large circle of friends.
"Funeral arrangements to be finalised, please re-check RIP.IE on Tuesday June 25th, 2019."
Leigh Anthony Gardiner, a 49-year-old chef, appeared in court in the resort at the weekend.
Gardiner, who is from the UK, was remanded in prison pending an ongoing criminal probe.
He was detained after allegedly attacking Mr Pender with two broken bottles while he was using the loo at the Pogs Old Irish Rock Pub.
Police said the Irishman was attacked after politely asking the suspect to stop bothering his wife and the partner of a friend he was with.
