The mother of a boy killed by a drunk Irish rugby star made a heartbreaking plea for the return of Limerick hurling gnome ornaments that were removed from her son’s grave for the second time in a few weeks.
Avid Limerick hurling supporter Kate Tierney Walsh, Bruff, Co Limerick, also pleaded with “whoever is doing it, please stop”.
The Co Limerick mother’s son, Kevin Walsh, (16), who was a Limerick GAA and Liverpool FC superfan, was killed outright when a Land Rover ploughed into the back of his uncle Vincent Tierney’s stationary BMW in which he was a passenger, on April 1, 2006.
