http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/breaking/2008/0929/breaking56.htm I was sad to hear this news today. I enjoyed the Anna Livia festival the past 2 years (I hadn't heard of it before) and hope it will continue for many more years.I also remember her beautiful singing when she sang with our choir a few years ago. RIP.

I never speak ill of the dead, but when I was in the DIT Conservatory, Greevy was treated like a Lady and everyone bowed to her.

It was sickening.

Yes - she was an excellent singer - but she seemed to expect to be treated in a special way.

Maybe I'm wrong - maybe it was the DIT staff who worshipped her.

RIP
