Manx veteran Christopher Garrett has been described by colleagues in Ukraine as a 'lovable guy, completely dedicated to his work'.
The bomb disposal expert, from Peel, was killed yesterday (6 May).
The charity he co-founded, Prevail Together, says he and two other team members were seriously injured in an incident in Izyum in eastern Ukraine.
Board Member and Ambassador Shaun Pinner later confirmed that Chris had died.
Speaking to Manx Radio's Lewis Foster, Shaun paid tribute to his friend and colleague.
