Lead vocals of Dio band Ronnie James Dio, an American songwriter, died last Sunday after his battle against gastric cancer. According to his wife and manager Wendy Dio, the singer died at 7:45 in the morning. “Today my heart is broken,” Wendy Dio wrote on the singer’s site . “Many, many friends and family were able to say their private goodbyes before he peacefully passed away. “Ronnie knew how much he was loved by all,” she continued. “We so appreciate the love and support that you have all given us … Please know he loved you all and his music will live on forever.” The statement was confirmed by publicist Maureen O’Connor, who said Dio died in Los Angeles. He had been treated at a Houston hospital. Dio revealed last summer that he was suffering from stomach cancer shortly after wrapping up a tour in Atlantic City, N.J., with the latest incarnation of Black Sabbath, under the name Heaven And Hell.
