'You will always be the king' - GAA legend Mick O'Dwyer laid to rest
Mourners have paid touching tributes to Mick O'Dwyer this morning as the legendary former footballer and manager was laid to rest. O'Dwyer, affectionately known as 'Micko,' passed away this week at the age of 88 leaving behind a trail of wonderful memories for all involved in Gaelic football. An icon in Kerry, Micko won four All-Ireland's as a player and was named footballer of the year in 1969.
