Theft victim ‘overwhelmed’ by Rose of Tralee generosity
New Zealander Vivien Lynch represented her country in the famous festival in 2002. However, last year she was the victim of a robbery where the thief took off with two boxes containing “irreplaceable” memorabilia of her time in Ireland.
Vivien was heartbroken at the loss and her partner contacted the festival office, which stepped in to ensure she would receive a Christmas present to remember.
