Tributes have been paid to a former employee at the Irish Examiner/ Evening Echo who was a noted advocate for the elderly and an organiser of Cork’s largest social event for seniors, the Over 60s Talent Competition.

Its founder, Paddy O’Brien, has paid tribute to his “right hand man” Humphrey O’Sullivan following his death last Monday evening.
