I read that he was in hospital with multiple organ failure. Sad to hear of his passing. All my generation, these guys: Young, David Cassidy, Tom Petty. The Stones are looking cadaverous these days, too.

Californians will morn his passing since they dutifully kept him alive at tax payer expense for decades and decades.

He now has died. I loved David Cassidy when I was young.
So sad that he should have developed dementia and alcoholism.

Edwin Hawkins will qualify as notable death I think.

And it is not only for "O happy day" 😉
