Thousands to decorate tree for lost loved ones

PEOPLE yesterday queued to place ribbons on a special Christmas tree in Limerick city to remember loved ones who have died.

Supported by Limerick City Council and Limerick Thomond Rotary Club, names can be written on a ribbon which is placed on the Remembrance Tree.

The tree will become a sea of yellow, with thousands of ribbons fixed to its branches over the Christmas period.
