Too young...but excessive lifestyles tend to do that.

RIP Allstar...

I heard he had gone to hospice. I’m starting to realize it’s where they take people to make them comfortable while they die. It’s a tin line between how it actually works and assisted suicide. My mother and father both died in hospice in the last three years (both 90+). You’re basically waiting for them to die. My father only lasted a few days, but my mother lasted a few months. It felt kinda creepy in my mother’s case because nobody was doing anything to make her “better”. Rather, the goal was to just make her comfortable. But it was not really practical to make her “better”. She had do specific ailments. Her body was just done.

Harwell was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a disease of the heart muscle that can makes it hard for the heart to deliver blood to the body, several years ago.

Before or after you know what? He was a heavy drinker with an extreme lifestyle BUT, the great equalizer probably had a hand in this untimely death.

One of my favorite memories with my kids was watching “Shrek” and singing along to “All Star” with them.

He needed a liver transplant but they won’t perform one unless you’ve been clean for a set period of time.
