"I was deeply, deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Máirín Quill, someone who served the people of Cork with great distinction as a city councillor, senator and a deputy in Dáil Éireann.
"Erudite and impactful, Máirín championed the arts and culture in the city of Cork.
"I served on many boards with her, but I particularly enjoyed our time together on the arts committee of Cork Corporation.
"Máirín was a true renaissance figure with a great sense of the future of our city.
"She was always very helpful in providing advice and creative ideas.
"She was a true patriot and it was an honour to be her friend and colleague.
"My deepest sympathies go to all her family and friends.
"Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam."
