The four remaining members of Boyzone will perform a tribute at the funeral of late bandmate Stephen Gately in Dublin on Saturday, it's been reported.

Ronan Keating, Mikey Graham, Shane Lynch and Keith Duffy are said to be in the process of planning what song they will sing at the service.

A source told the Daily Mirror the tribute was “what Stephen would have wanted”.

It follows reports the bandmates are to spend Friday night in St Laurence O'Toole's Church with Gately's body.

They are also expected to carry the late singer's coffin tomorrow, along with two members of Gately's immediate family.

Friends of the late singer and thousands of fans are expected to attend the mass, which begins at midday.

The 33-year-old singer was found dead in his apartment in Majorca last weekend. A post-mortem showed Gately had suffered a pulmonary oedema.
