Brendan Honoured and “Pope” Arrives at Rathmore Parade 2013

With Michael John Dineen as the superb Grand Marshal at the excellent St. Patrick's Day Parade in Rathmore today Olympic Hero, Brendan O'Sullivan of Rathduane was especially honoured while one of the most popular winners of the Parade Participants was Michael Linehan of Scaraglen who arrived as "the newly elected Pope!"  Cullen and Millstreet Pipe Bands added greatly to the Parade atmosphere.   Despite the inclement weather a large attendance enjoyed the wonderful annual event.  Brendan Murphy and I for LTV2 recorded the proceedings.  (S.R.)
