Beloved child of Laura Ellen Lane

January 19, 1962 – July 23, 2018

It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to our dear Seamus Ian Peebles, a truly beautiful soul who touched the lives of so many.

Shae (him/him she/her), as he was affectionately known, was a talented musician who had a passion for music that was unparalleled. He would sing and play the piano with a passion that was awe-inspiring, leaving all who heard him feeling uplifted and moved. Shae was also a beloved member of the LGBTQ community of Boston, where she was a prominent and respected drag performer. In the Boston Drag scene, Shae was known by her provocative stage name, Emphysema Menthol One Hundreds. Her talent and charisma on stage were matched only by the warmth and kindness she showed to everyone she met. She was a shining example of what it meant to be a true ally, not only to the LGBTQ community but to all who needed a friend. Shae’s passing has come too soon. We are left with a deep sense of loss and sadness, knowing that we will never again hear him sing or see him perform. But we will always remember the light that shone from within him, the love he shared with others, and the joy he brought to our lives. To Shae’s family and friends, we offer our deepest condolences. We know that his loss will be felt deeply and we hope that in time, the memories of his love and the times shared together will bring some comfort. Rest peacefully, dear Shae. Your spirit will live on in the music you created and the love you shared. You will be missed more than words can express, but never forgotten. A celebration of Shae’s life will be held at Jacques Cabaret. We warmly invite her loved ones to come together and fondly remember her as she would have wanted. Come and share a few hugs and stories, say a few words, sing a song, or perform a drag number in her honor.

Celebrating Shae Saturday May, 27th 6-8pm Jacques Cabaret 79 Broadway St Boston, MA

Shae’s family will hold a private funeral at their convenience.
