The three will be buried next to Una’s late mother in a graveyard in the village of Convoy.
A wake will be held from Monday to Wednesday in Raphoe at which hundreds of people are expected to attend.
Una, who was 47 years of age, and her young family had been living in Moycullen, Co Galway, for a number of years.
The family had recently renovated an old cottage and had just finished the renovations in recent weeks.
They were a huge part of the local community in Moycullen, where they were members of a number of groups including the local basketball club.
