Dear Miriam and extended families, so very sorry to hear of your unimaginable loss. My deep sincerest sympathies. May you find some comfort in your many happy cherised memories.
I was truly shocked by this tragedy. There are no words to describe the pain you feel. I hope that life gives comfort to the people close to her and especially to Miriam. Ruby, fate took you away too soon and this is a real unfairness. A new star shines in the sky, R.I.P.
Deepest love and condolences to Miriam, Keith and all of Ruby's family and friends at this saddest of times. What a kind, creative, wonderful, vibrant, loving and beautiful girl Ruby was. I hope we will always feel her love around us just as Ruby will be in our hearts forever.
I never met Ruby myself, but I have watched her perform, her talent and passion for music touched me in a way few people ever have. May she rest in peace.
Dear Miriam, Eva, Benji and all the de Búrca and Connolly families, along with dear Ruby's friends - sending you all deepest condolences on the devastating loss of beautiful and talented, Ruby. My daughter Lanah, who was in Ruby's school year and a friend, played me Ruby's cover of 'Paul' by Big Thief a few days after she passed away, and hers was surely a voice singing from the heavens. We are thinking of you all, and I know Ruby will always be all around you in spirit and in your beautiful memories of her. Rest in peace, dear Ruby.
To Miriam, Eva and all the family

What words can express the devastating loss of our Neice Ruby.
Keith and Miriam will only be consoled, when signs of Ruby's presence, in Spirit becomes apparent.
Such an exquisite, and unique talent, will shine bright forever, and guide them to the light, when their time comes.
Ruby will always be amongst us, and we will meet again for certain.
Until then, Ruby fly high!

Miriam, Eva, there are no words that can express the deep sorrow that has engulfed you, your family and all who knew and loved Ruby, and whose lives she touched. You have been privileged to have her as your daughter, granddaughter, friend. She was so privileged in the family that gave her life and surrounded her with love. Her spirit lives on in all of you. May she rest in peace always. With our love and deep sympathy.

My heart goes out to Ruby’s friends and family. She got me through a rough period in my life a couple of years ago, and while I deeply regret drifting apart as the years went by, I’ll always cherish the memories I have of her. To this day I still listen to a song she introduced me to, whenever I’m feeling down; “I could be happy yesterday - Stiff Little Fingers”.

My deepest condolences to Ruby’s family, friends and to everyone who knew her. Ruby’s passion for music was inspiring and it was brilliant to have her involved in the Irish Youth Music Awards programme through our hub in Youth Work Ireland Galway. The songs she recorded with us and her performances at IYMAs events with 60 Watt Girl will always be remembered.
I only got to know her briefly but I can already be certain that she was truly a wonderful person. I'm so sorry for your loss and my deepest condolences. May she rest in peace.

Ruby's spirit will live on in the hearts and minds of all who loved her - Miriam, Keith. Luca, Eva & Ono - who adored her in his lifetime - Gabriel, Benji, Killian all her extended De Burca & Connolly families. Like her parents and grandparents, Ruby drew lovely friends around her. They're so young and will need comfort in their time of grief. My girls remember Ruby's drawings. I remember reading with her as a child and her disarming strength of character in one so young. We are all so devastated for Miriam & Keith, with love,
ruby was an amazing, kind and creative soul that i got to know over quarantine, she inspired me with her music and hilarious personality and truly made an impact on my worldview, though we might not have been the closest i did consider her a friend and will miss her and will hold our memories and her music in my heart forever ❤️
my deepest condolences are sent to her friends, family and everyone close to her , i’m so sorry

Though I only got to spend a day with you, I couldn't believe the news when I heard. I can't stop thinking about you. Rest in piece Ruby.
Beautiful words, so sorry for your loss. So young and talented. I have two teenagers myself and they both knew Ruby from mixing in town. Both upset on hearing she died, may she rest in peace
