We are shocked and saddened to hear of Seamus’ death. Our deepest sympathy to his wife Kathleen, his daughter Mary, sons Seamus, Brendan, Michael and John, his sister Eileen and extended family and friends. I have fond memories of Seamus coming to visit our house in Cullen with his friend the late Tom Ruddy RIP from Graffey. They were great fun and always tried to start a row between us before we went to bed. It always had a happy ending as they would come down to our level and we were all friends. No TV would ever replace those days or memories. We are so sorry we cannot attend his funeral. May Seamus’ kind and gentle soul Rest in Peace.
