Sad to hear the news of the passing of the Laois footballing legend, John Conway after a long battle with illness. Named on the Laois team of the millennium and involved with Laois GAA for many's a year as a player and referee .
Condolences to his family and all at Arles Kilcruise Gaa club.
A great character altogether who I wouldn't remember playing but came across many a time when he was refereeing. May he rest in peace.
From the little I saw, and the lot I heard, they don't make men like this no more!
I recall John Conway playing at full back for Laois in the late 60s and early 70s. One of our best.
