That is truly sad. Jeff Healey was a truly talented musician.

God, that really sucks, Matt.
Who'd have thought he'd book a tour if his cancer was so serious?

Hi Nicole and Alex
Yeah another light has just flickered out. But poor Mrs Healey especially and his 2 children.
He looked so boyish even in recent pictures.
Godbless him and anyone else who has recently suffered or who is suffering.

He wanted to keep making music until his last days. He had a rare type of eye cancer when he was just a kid and eventually it got to his lungs. from my understanding, his death came much sooner than doctors expected.

I guess so, stop playing maybe for him would be saying "I give it up'. Saw that movie "Roadhouse" he was playing in just a few months ago. I like that movie!
RIP Jeff
