The funeral of Dolores O’Riordan takes place today in Limerick with a private burial ceremony following the funeral mass. The 46-year-old from Kilmallock in County Limerick was found dead in a hotel on London’s Park Lane last Monday morning.
An inquest into her death has been adjourned until 3 April. On Tuesday, it was confirmed that London police are not treating her death as suspicious.
The Cranberries, with Dolores at the helm, became global superstars during the 90s selling millions of records around the world, with huge album sales and singles such as ‘Linger’, ‘Zombie’ and ‘Dreams’ dominating the airwaves.
Tributes have been pouring in for the Limerick lady from all over.
