- Abstract
The sudden death of Professor Proinsias Mac Cana at his home in Dublin on 21 May 2004 came as a shock to his friends and acquaintances. He appeared to have been in good health and excellent spirits. My last close contact with him had been at the Twelfth International Congress for Celtic Studies at Aberystwyth in the summer of 2003 when I had the pleasure of spending some time in the company of himself and his wife Réiltín. He felt relaxed and at home in Aberystwyth and the conference gave him the opportunity to visit many of his favourite places and meet old friends. He was in splendid form and he recounted many interesting and enjoyable anecdotes of his time in Aberystwyth when he was lecturer there in the 1950s.
