Ronnie James Dio passes away

[jsdspif]

I realize that this isn't smoking related , but if you haven't heard yet , Ronnie James Dio passed away Sunday morning . He had been battling stomach cancer . He was arguably one of the best vocalists in hard rock for right around 40 + years . I know some of us here are into that type of music .

I met him a few times, was a very nice guy. Sorry he passed, didnt realize he was that old.

I read about that this morning and put in my copy of Black Sabbath's Heaven And Hell featuring Dio. The rock world lost a great one.

RIP Ronnie, RIP.

What's eerie is that this song came on my playlist randomly on Sunday
