Sadness as Leitrim Rose of Tralee bows out

There was disappointment this week as Leitrim's Rose of Tralee representative, Annmarie Keegan, bowed out of the competition before the televised finals.

Aughavas native, Annmarie, has been a wonderful representative for the county and spent a week in Co Kerry with the other 65 competitors before the final 32 were named over the weekend.

Sadly, Annmarie was not named among the final 32 but nevertheless she has been a fantastic Rose and ambassador for our county and she will always be Leitrim's own Rose.
