Tributes have been paid following the death of retired pharmacist and former chairman of Castletown Commissioners, Derek Cain.
Mr Cain, who served the people of Castletown as a member of the local authority for more than 30 years, passed away recently from coronavirus.
As a mark of respect, flags at the old capital’s town hall have been lowered.
