Enda McLaughlin went on a stabbing spree injuring two taxi drivers and another man on June 23rd.
The 27 year old from Carndonagh had been released from Castlerea prison a few weeks previously before traveling to Europe.
McLaughlin, who had a string of previous convictions for assault and public order offences went berserk after taking a taxi from Holland to Germany.
He stabbed two taxi drivers and then a Lithuanian truck driver before crossing a road and being killed by an English couple driving a Mercedes car.
Mr McLaughlin’s remains arrived back in Ireland on Friday night and his funeral is due to take place today at the Church of the Sacred Heart at 11am.
His family say he never received proper treatment for a range of mental health issues.
