He was married with three daughters and a son.

His daughter Helen succeeded him as TD for Meath East after his death.

2004

A close friend of Taoiseach Enda Kenny, McEntee's election candidacy began in 2004 when he was selected as the Fine Gael candidate in the Meath by-election, which was triggered by the resignation from the Dáil of former leader Fine Gael, John Bruton.

2005

He served as a Teachta Dála (TD) from 2005 to 2012.

McEntee was born in the village of Nobber in County Meath.

2007

McEntee was re-elected at the 2007 and 2011 general elections.

He was the Fine Gael deputy spokesperson on Agriculture, Fisheries and Food with special responsibility for Food and Fisheries from 2007 to 2011.
