“A year gone today. Dolores you inspired me so much, with your talent & your tragic, untimely death. Life is so short. The sky can change forever in a heartbeat. Don’t waste your days, don’t waste your wishes. Do what you love while you can,” one fan tweeted.
“‘I was trying to find myself. I still haven’t, actually, but I wanna search.’ One year without you, Dolores, and your voice is still as bright as always,” another wrote.
An open house called ‘Piano for Dolores’ is set to take place in Limerick’s Ormston House today from midday until this evening, where there will be a book of memories, a portrait of the singer as well as a piano.
There will also be some musical performances later in the evening, after several of The Cranberries’ biggest hits are played through a sound system in the venue.
