Quote Message: We were all blown away that this small girl from Limerick had such an amazing voice. The fact that she wasn't already in a band was a miracle.

He said he wasn't "sure at what point Dolores accepted fame, or if she ever did."

Quote Message: In my opinion, what made Dolores connect with people was her honesty. What you saw was what you got. In the early days, the band was very shy; especially Dolores. She sang with her back to the audience but sang songs that people could relate to. There was no big act. I don’t think people were used to this, and it seemed to resonate with them.

Dan Waite, from the band's label Eleven Seven, said:

“Dolores left me a voice message just after midnight last night stating how much she loved Bad Wolves version of Zombie; she was looking forward to seeing me in the studio and recording vocals.

Quote Message: She sounded full of life, was joking and excited to see me and and my wife this week. The news of her passing is devastating and my thoughts are with Don her ex-husband, her children, and her mother.
