I saw her a good few yikes during the second half of the seventies with the early De Dannan, with Reel Union and a few times with John Faulkner. There was an rte documentary perhaps ten years ago where she looked back on life, and it wasn't an easy one, music, illness and all that. She was trying to get back into singing, which wasn't easy. I found it sad and moving to see her then but she was determined to push on. The special for her 70th, with the whole family and many friends coming together in Caherlistrane to pay tribute was very moving too.
