A post-mortem examination is to be carried out tomorrow (Tuesday) to determine the cause of death.

It is understood that a party had been held at the house on Saturday night.

A relative said the father-of-two was “very family orientated”.

With his partner Danielle Campbell, the couple had two girls – Kyla, aged two, and ten-month-old Kaycee.

His parents, Sandra and John Rainey, are orginally from the Kilwilkie and Princes Street areas of Lurgan and Barry was brought up in Craigavon.

“He thought the world of his mum and was very close to his late grandfather Patrick Fox,” said a close relative.
