from complications of prostate cancer
 
I don't know the particulars of his case [obviously], but, at least in theory, and, on average, this should NOT have happened.
 
Unless something really weird went wrong, men should NOT be dying from prostate cancer at that age [or, quite frankly, at any other age].

He had his fun...now it’s time to go. Sounds funny but he was old school Hollywood in a lot of ways. At least he wasn’t an idiot lib.
