Sinead O’Connors’ Funeral Held in Ireland as Thousands Pay Tribute
Sinead O’Connors’ Funeral Held in Ireland
Thousands Pay Tribute to Sinéad O'Connor as Private Funeral Held in Ireland BBC 9 AUG 2023 Thousands of mourners lined the streets of the coastal town of Bray, Ireland, for singer Sinéad O'Connor's funeral procession Tuesday. Fans gather for a 'last goodbye' to the Irish singer Sinead O'Connor as her hearse passes by her former home in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, on Tuesday. O'Connor, who died in London on July 26 at age 56, lived in Bray for 15 years before selling her house there in 2021. "Sinead loved living in Bray and the people in it," her family said in a statement to RTE. "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." Fans left tributes to O'Connor outside of her former home. Irish President Michael D Higgins attended the private funeral service and spoke of the "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer's creativity, vulnerability and heroism in a statement. "The outpouring of grief and appreciation of the life and work of Sinead O'Connor demonstrates the profound impact which she had on the Irish people," Higgins said. "The unique contribution of Sinéad involved the experience of a great vulnerability combined with a superb, exceptional level of creativity that she chose to deliver through her voice, her music and her songs." Also attending the private funeral service were Leo Varadkar, the prime minister of Ireland; Irish songwriter Bob Geldof; and U2 bandmates Bono and the Edge, The Irish Times reported. Shaykh Dr Umar Al-Qadri led Muslim funeral prayers. "The more she sang and spoke about her own pain, as well as about the pervasive sins in society that she witnessed, the more her voice and her words resonated with listeners and touched their hearts," he said in a prepared eulogy. "I know that peoples of all faiths throughout the world will be praying for this beloved daughter of Ireland, among them will be countless Muslims praying for their sister in faith and humanity." O'Connor was found unresponsive in a London residence on July 26, and her family confirmed her death.
