- Séamus Brennan died in the early hours of 9 July 2008 at his home in Churchtown in Dublin. He had been unwell for some time.[3]
He is survived by his wife Ann, their two sons and four daughters. Brian Cowen said Brennan would remembered as "a brilliant political strategist, a dedicated constituency TD, a reforming minister and a very popular colleague". | |

| Very much a shocker to me though the rumours were extant on p.ie for a few months. I saw it reported there while on holidays and there was no need to duplicate it here then I thought. |

| Don't know too much about the man but I liked his sad and clever face. Sorry for the loss to all who knew him. |

| He was involved in breaking up the Aer Lingus monopoly during the late seventies or early eighties which led to the growth of the monster Ryanair a true thorn in the side of humanity, which was allowed to use the then new Stansted as a launch pad despite the protests of Aer Lingus. Ryanair who employ thousands and provide air fares like Shannon-Beauvais for €50 - a true thorn in the side of humanity alright not to mention the extremely unjust Shannon-Treviso (30 mins from Venice) for €50 too in the middle of August. A desperate travesty. http://www.compare-airport-parking.co.uk/news/898/Ryanair-Pay-Tribute-To-Seamus-Brennan-.htmlRIP Seamus. |
