Today marks one week since ten people were tragically killed in the Creeslough tragedy.
The area has since witnessed six funerals in that time, and seven people have been laid to rest.
The funeral of Hugh or Hughie Kelly will take place in St .Michael's Church, Creeslough this morning.
At just 59 years of age, he was the oldest person killed in the tragedy that occurred exactly seven days ago.
Hughie was a farmer, who also worked in construction, and was described as 'cheery' by locals.
He'll be the eighth person who was killed in the blast to be laid to rest, in the space of a week.
President Michael D. Higgins, who has been in the village since Wednesday will attend today and tomorrow's funerals.
Yesterday he met with more of those involved with the recovery operation.
It's understood this afternoon, a gathering will take place in the village to remember all of those who lost their lives one week ago at Lafferty's service station.
