HUNDREDS of mourners turned up in Summerhill on Wednesday afternoon to say a final farewell to Captain Con Power, who died after a long illness last Sunday at the age of 71.

Among the mourners and joining Con’s son Robert in carrying Con’s coffin to his final resting place were his teammates from the famous Aga Khan victories of the 1970s, James Kernan and Eddie Macken, the latter of whom travelled from his home in America to bid farewell to his friend.
