Sir Howard Morrison dies

New Zealand has today lost one of its icons.  Sir Howard Morrison died this morning after returning from Rarotonga where he had been ill.  He was 74.

Sir Howard Morrison has appeared on a number of New Zealand TV shows during his long career.  He provided his voice for Bro'Town, courted some controversy when he suggested NZ Idol winner Rosita Vai was too fat to have a career in music and was due to sing the national anthem at the greatly anticipated boxing clash between Tua and Cameron.

We’ve lost some truly great souls over the last months. Howard Morrison had his final curtain call and his send off became a national event. His talent as a singer was in some way eclipsed by his greater ability to cross cultural boundaries, bringing people and cultures together through his art.. Farewell 3 Great Souls
