Ronnie James Dio, whose soaring vocals, poetic lyrics and mythic tales of a never-ending struggle between good and evil broke new ground in heavy metal, died Sunday, according to a statement from his wife and manager. He was 67.

Dio revealed last summer that he was suffering from stomach cancer shortly after wrapping up a tour in Atlantic City, N.J., with the latest incarnation of Black Sabbath, under the name Heaven And Hell.

"However, Blabbermouth.net, along with many other websites who had posted to the contrary, retracted prior statements and confirmed Dio's death."

"Today my heart is broken, Ronnie passed away at 7:45 a.m. [on Sunday] 16th May. Many, many friends and family were able to say their private goodbyes before he peacefully passed away."

I wasn't a fan of his solo stuff, but I was and am a fan of Black Sabbath, and some Rainbow for that matter.

R.I.P. old man. I think he had a pretty good life.

Dio is the vocalist of Black Sabbath.


He's considered one of the Metal Gods.



I prefer Bruce myself but Dio was way too cool to die... :(
 
This is old news but it's never too late to post R.I.P.
