Tributes have been pouring in for a gifted young musician who tragically lost her life in a car crash in Co Wexford.
Leona Reville, who was in her early 20s, has been described by those who knew her as a “fantastic person”, “extremely talented” and “one of the nicest people you could ever meet”.
She was killed in a two-car collision on the New Line Road, near Wexford town shortly before 6am on Friday morning. The driver of the other car, a woman aged in her 60s, was taken to Wexford General Hospital but her injuries are understood to be non-life threatening.
