A Voice to Remember!

The young Christchurch opera singer who sustained serious brain injuries after being hit by a car in Sydney last week has died.

Seamus Casey, 27, had been on life support in Sydney's Royal Prince Alfred Hospital since the accident last Tuesday.

He last performed in Christchurch in February 2006, when he was raising money for a 12 month stint with the Australian Opera Studio in Perth. Earlier he was selected to join the Dame Malvina Major Emerging Artists programme in 2002 and was named as vocal award winner in Christchurch's 2000 Young Performer of the Year.

Seamus was my cricket captain when I first joined Burnside High School after immigrating to New Zealand in 1997. He was a wonderful, humorous guy with a great voice. I remember feeling homesick during those early days but playing cricket on Saturdays with Seamus and the boys really did ease the anxiety of integrating into a new society. I am really sad to hear about Seamus's passing, at such a young age. My thoughts go out to his family.

Seamus, I have only found out today and i feel so sad, we worked together at Virgin Mobile and there was never a dull moment when you were around, you did soo many funny things, one of those was your 5 second rule, and singing all the time. You were soo cool and im sure that your star is shining brighter than ever.

I worked with Seamus at MetLife and I am very sorry that it was for such a short time. He was such a vibrant personality (funky hat on a Friday) and achieved so much in the short time that he was with us. He is sorely missed. My thoughts go out to Laura and his family at this hard time.
