On December 23, 2002, David Lynch's life was turned upside down in an instant. After leaving to go shopping for some last-minute Christmas supplies, he returned to find his home in flames.
His father, Sean 'John' Lynch, was killed in the tragedy. The 86-year-old is believed to have nodded off by the fire after dinner, with his little dog Romeo by his side.
David, an only child, had been living at his father's home in Carrigaline after moving home from Dublin during the pandemic to look after his elderly dad, Cork Beo reports.
