Skin cancer I hear.

Was a big lib rad democrat, wouldn't be surprised if he used aborted baby blood to treat his illness.

Another thread mentioned skin cancer. He had been in bad health for over a year.

I just saw a report he was diagnosed with melanoma about 4 years ago. So cancer was indeed the cause of his death.

"He lived his life like a song"

The Wino and I Know from Living and Dying in 3/4 Time. One of my favorite songs.

The ice cream man he's a hillbilly fan
Got seventy-eights by Hank Snow
Walks down the street, shufflin' his feet
To a rhythm that only he knows...

He didn’t have enough sense to come in out of the sun

Too much booze

Baffling that so many of “them” are. Did they not have to work hard to achieve what they had/have? Scrappy advisors/counsel?

That’s a good question. I guess you have to add all of the Eagle Band players net worth up. Question would be, which members?

Ha! I’ve seen both Jimmah and DAC in concert many times, separately, of course.

It was yet another post-vax cancer death, I hear. Way too many of those these days.

The COVID waxxxxxinations seriously damage the immune system which allows cancer to turn into TURMO cancers. Those with cancer in remission are finding at their next checkup they have STAGE 4 cancer and they are dead in a few weeks.
