B'as Callainn i gContae Chill Chainnigh do John Mackey (87).
Bhí cuid mhór dá shaol caite aige i Londain.
"Always a proud Irishman, he lived happily around Finsbury Park for over 65 years. A loved and popular member of his community. He would always be remembered with love and a smile."
The family said the loss of their uncle has had huge impact on the wider family.
"His loss will always be profound. Yes, he was an old gentleman and he was getting towards the end of his life, but he was still a big part of this family and he will be missed forever."
Yesterday, Augustine was excluded from the court due to disruption and a failure to answer questions put to him in the witness box.
He shouted several times at people in the court, and also insisted that he would not be returning to the courtroom.
Augustine was alleged to have attacked Mr Mackey on 6 May, inflicting blunt force impacts to the pensioner's head and chest. Augustine insists he never harmed the pensioner.
"I took the bag and I ran," he shouted several times in court.
When Augustine was arrested at the Beaconsfield Hotel on 8 May, empty containers matching the groceries purchased by John Mackey were found in Augustine's hotel room. The food appeared to have been eaten.
In a police interview, Augustine claimed that he picked the grocery bag off the ground after it was blown by the wind.
However, in court this week, he told the jury that he was lying during that police interview.
He said that he took the bag out of John Mackey's hand and ran.
John Mackey died from blunt force impacts to his head and chest, the court heard
Augustine insisted that he did not harm Mr Mackey and did not see the 87-year-old fall to the ground.
In separate evidence, a forensic pathologist told the court that John Mackey suffered traumatic brain injuries associated with kicking and stamping.
Dr Matthew Cieka found that Mr Mackey suffered multiple bruises and abrasions to his head, neck, back, arms and chest.
He also had two fractured ribs.
The impact to Mr Mackey caused his brain to shift multiple times in his skull, the court heard.
There was evidence that Mr Mackey had Alzheimer's disease. However, there was no underlying condition found that would have caused his death.
Dr Cieka concluded that John Mackey died from blunt force impacts to his head and chest.
