Séamus MacMATHÚNA

Our deepest sympathies to our lovely wonderful sister Una and all her beautiful children Una, Niamh, Donal, Fionnuala, Lorcan, Seamie, Ida and Darach on the sad loss of dear Seamus. One of the most endearing qualities of Seamus was his generous heart. He neve sought material or financial gain for help he gave to any person or cause. When both my dear Late parents were ill Seamus wanted to take both of them into his and Una's care and give them half his house to live in, that was Seamus's nature. We have many, many treasured and lasting memories of him, he was loyal in good times and bad. The light of heaven to you Seamus. May the choir of heavenly angels greet you. Ar dheis De go raibh a anam

Sincere sympathy to Úna and the extended Mac Mathúna family on the death of Séamus, a remarkable musician, leader and a towering figure in all aspects of our culture. As a life- long friend, I am proud that I was involved with him on many projects over the years and saw first-hand his inspiring personality and boundless enthusiasm. He was universally loved and admired by all who met him and his name will be remembered for years to come where ever Irish music is played.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam

Comhbhrón ó chroí do Úna agus do chlann Mhic Mathúna uilig, ar bhás Shéamuis, RIP.. Ceoltóir, fonnadóir, cumadóir, eagraí den chéad scoth agus cara dilis, ionraic le pearsantacht gleoite, ab ea é Séamus. Ní raibh ach Séamus amháin ann, agus cinnte, ní bheidh a leithéid ann arís.
Bhí aithne agam ar Shéamus le na cianta agus d'oibrigh muid le chéile ar gach uile ní a bhí baint leis, ar Fhleadh Cheoil na hÉireann. Nuair a smaoiníonn siar, nach breá an sásamh a bhí ann. Go raibh míle maith agat a Shéamuis agus táim cinnte go bhfuil tú ins na bhFlaithis ar dheis lámh Dé ag 'gabháil fhíonn' agus ag seinm ceoil.

Sympathy to Una and family on the death of Seamus many a tune Seamus and my dad Peter Horan had may he rest in peace.

Déanaim comhbhrón le Úna, clann agus gaolta ar bhás Séamus ionúin leo. Athair uasal, críostúil, dílis dá chreideamh agus dá thír dhúchais. Chothaigh sé grá don cheol i gcroí na mílte. Go leana sé ag déanamh ceoil leis na haingil i Ríocht Dé.

Sincere condolences on the passing of Séamus. He was an absolute gent and I will cherish the memories of him from endless Fleadhanna. Thinking of his wife, children and extended family in this difficult time. R.I P. Séamus.

Táimíd croí briste agus brónach go smior ar bás Seamús Uasal. Bhí fuinneamh neart agus craic I gconaí I ngach gné dá shaol. Liosta foirleathan de cuimhní taithneamhach álainn atá againn. Cláríneach go smior agus duine uasal den scoth. Níl a sharú le fáil ar “come on the Banner” thar aon rud eile i measc na céadta cur i láthair a cruthaigh sé. Tá Úna agus an clann in ár bPaidreacha agus smaointí i gconaí.

Our condolences to all the extended MacMathuna family on the sad passing of Seamus. RIP.

It is with a heavy heart and with much sadness I pay respect to the passing of my mentor, teacher and friend Séamus MACMATHÚNA. Alongside the other extraordinary mentors and teachers in my youth, It is close to impossible to capture the generosity, the passion and the commitment to fostering talent Séamus gave all day, every day to both preserve and promote our culture and traditions both at home and on an international stage. So many fond memories and stories that often rotate around ‘the yellow van’ - that literally kept the show on the road for many years.
I will never forget that incredible performance of Mo Gile Mear with all those amazing nuances of beat and intonation that simply evoked centuries of tradition – often with joy and sometimes with sadness.

And for now we are sad again.
RIP Séamus MACMATHÚNA

Sincere Sympathy to the MacMahon family on the passing of Seamus may he rest in peace.

Sincere Condolences to all the Mac.Mathuna Families on the sad passing of Seamus. He has left a great legacy with his Music & Song. May his gentle soul rest in eternal peace...
