"The unique contribution of Sinead 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," he said. Roads will be closed near the star's former home on Strand Road in Bray, so fans can pay their respects as the late Irish singer's funeral cortege passes.
"It is expected the funeral procession will stop briefly in this area at some stage between these times."While Sinead O'Connor was known for her musical talent, she also made headlines for her controversial protests and activism. Journalist Paul Nolan had a long-standing relationship with O'Connor as a contributing editor for Hot Press Magazine.
O'Connor was vindicated when Pope Benedict XVI apologised to victims and their families in a letter to Irish Catholics in 2010 - but she condemned the apology for not going far enough. Fans have started gathering outside Sinead O'Connor's former home, as they prepare to say goodbye to the beloved Irish singer. A Volkswagen camper decorated with flowers and Pride flags pulled up, playing some of her songs from speakers mounted on the roof.
