With the funeral procession scheduled to pass the house where the star lived for 15 years, on Tuesday (8.08) fans of Sinéad O’Connor are invited to say a “last goodbye” and line a route along the seafront in Bray, County Wicklow.
The cortege will commence at the Harbour Bar end of Strand Road with a private burial ceremony to follow for 56-year old musician.
In a statement released on Sunday (8.06) by the artist’s family:
“Sinéad loved living in Bray and the people in it.”“With this procession, her family would like to acknowledge the outpouring of love for her from the people of Co Wicklow and beyond, since she left last week to go to another place.” “The Gardai have asked that people gather, if they would like to say a last goodbye to the singer, from 10.30am on Tuesday along the Bray seafront.”
Since her tragic passing, fans have been paying homage to Sinéad’s legacy as a singer and activist by leaving flowers and messages at her former home in Bray, while other supporters have gathered to pay their respects at locations in London, Belfast and Dublin.
Sinéad, who was catapulted to fame in 1990 following the release of her seminal hit ‘Nothing Compares 2 U,’ was found unresponsive by police at her home in South-East London on July 26.
