STRIKING tributes were paid yesterday to solicitor and All-Ireland-winning Kerry footballer Garry MacMahon, who died last week after a brief illness.

He was aged 70.

A native of Listowel, Co Kerry, he was the eldest of five sons of the late Bryan MacMahon, the renowned writer and teacher, and his wife, Kitty, and a brother of Mr Justice Bryan MacMahon, of the High Court.
