KISS Remembers Ronnie James Dio
The death of Ronnie James Dio this past Sunday has left the heavy metal world in shock. Rock and metal musicians have taken to the Web to express their sadness and honor one of the elder statesmen of their genre.
The members of KISS have chimed in to pay their respects to their fallen friend: “We mourn the tragic passing of the great Ronnie James Dio. In addition to his powerhouse vocal ability, Ronnie was a true gentleman who always emanated great warmth and friendship to us and everyone around him. We will miss him.”
RJD succumbed to the stomach cancer he was first diagnosed with last year. He was 67. Memorial and funeral arrangements are still pending, but fans can expect tributes to be made by the artists who loved him and were influenced by his music.
