Message from Wendy Dio

Today my heart is broken, Ronnie passed away at 7:45am 16th May. Many, many friends and family were able to say their private good-byes before he peacefully passed away. Ronnie knew how much he was loved by all. We so appreciate the love and support that you have all given us. Please give us a few days of privacy to deal with this terrible loss. Please know he loved you all and his music will live on forever.

- Wendy Dio

if that doesnt make you sad, then you're a bad person

Man, this sucks. When I was 16 my dad gave me an old Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow album (Rainbow Rising) to check out and it was amazing. Such a talented guy. Everything he did was awesome.

RIP

this does indeed suck. i still think killswitch does a better holy diver, and ive never liked much of what dio has made, but he still deserves credit for being a modern metal pioneer
