Tom Kenny also worked at Langans. The family lived at Chapel St. and also for a while at Marian Row, before moving to Galway. There were three sons Sean, Paudge R.I.P. and Thomas.
Dick Concannon was a true gentleman, a native of Tuam and ran his own drapery shop in the lane at the back of Heatons after the demise of Langans.

Remember those rapid overhead transit systems for cash and receipts that they had in Tommy Durcan`s and T. Lavelles (McEllins)
