    He was being exploited while he was still alive- I hope it doesn't get even worse.

    That is so sad. I remember seeing an interview with him once and thinking how nice he seemed and how humble.

    I love his music, I was just thinking about his music yesterday, I heard a song and I thought of him and how much I have always loved his music and about getting a CD of his more recent music, thaqt is so strange that he came into my mind yesterday and today he is gone, but he is no longer suffering (I have seen how much with strokes with my nanny and grandpa) so I am glad and happy for his family and him on that part but not that he is gone, although someday he will again be with all his loved ones.
    Very sad news to hear.
