Title: Junior Seau dead from an apparent suicide
Post by: CaptainHappy on May 02, 2012, 06:14:11 PM
Not so sure if there are many San Diego Chargers fans here, but there may be Junior Seau fans...

RIP Junior Seau #55, dead at 43 years old.

 Junior Seau dead from an apparent suicide. Supposed self inflicted gunshot wound to the chest.

A very sad day for the San Diego community!

Wow!  What a great player, and seemingly great guy.  I idolized him in the late 80's playing at USC.  Then at the Chargers he seemed like the all american kid who was living the american dream with fame, fortune and even a clothing line and restaurant!  He supposedly tried to take himself out before by driving his SUV off a cliff a couple of years ago but not much was ever heard about that "accident" again.  It is just very sad for everyone that a great talent and another famous person who supposedly "had it all" has been wasted.

The San Diego Chargers will host a Celebration of Life in honor of Chargers linebacker and San Diego community icon Junior Seau on Friday, May 11 at 6:30 pm at Qualcomm Stadium.  The ceremony is open to the public and parking and admission are free.  The Celebration of Life will allow San Diegans to join in a community-wide tribute to their native son who passed away on Wednesday, May 2.  Special guest speakers will share stories and memories of the positive impact Seau made on them and countless others.

The parking lot at Qualcomm Stadium will open at 2 pm and the stadium gates will open at 4:30 pm.  There is no reserve seating and a large crowd is expected, so fans are urged to arrive early and carpool or take the Trolley.

Donations in Junior’s honor can be made to the Junior Seau Foundation and mailed to the Junior Seau Foundation, 5275 Market Street, Suite B, San Diego, CA 92114. Donations also can be made online at www.juniorseau.org.
