He has been named as Denis Healy (47), a native of Dunshaughlin.
The Rathbeggan-based founder and owner of the Keamc construction company was involved in a single car collision at Piercetown, Dunboyne, at around 2.30pm on Saturday.
He was rushed by ambulance to St James’s Hospital in Dublin, however he tragically later died on his injuries.
His death comes just over six months after the death of his sister Maria, who died from an illness last December.
The Kealys are a well-known GAA family with Denis featuring in the celebrated Dunshaughlin three-in-a-row county SFC successes some 20 years ago, which led to Leinster victory and an All-Ireland campaign.
He continued to support the Dunshaughlin and Royal Gaels club as a sponsor.
In a social media tribute to Mr Kealy this morning, the Dunshaughlin and Royal Gaels club said: “It is with deepest sadness and a heavy heart that we write on the sudden and tragic loss of Denis Kealy.
“Our sincere condolences to the Kealy family, relatives and friends. As a whole community, we would ask that you remember the family at this very difficult time.”
Mr Kealy is survived by his wife Charlene and family.
