 |
|
I just read that Dio's father passed away back in Dec on the 28th at the age of 92. If his father lived to be 92, makes me wonder how long Ronnie could have gone on if he was checked sooner, like we talked about.
At least he got to see his son accomplish a lot and the admiration the fans gave his son while he was alive and after he ( Ronnie ) passed away. He must have been proud of him.

Terrible news...I'm sure He was a great man, just like His son, He introduced Ronnie to the music, gave him a trumpet and it all began....
with love...

Just a shame that news took so long to get on facebook. Are we going back to playing second fiddle to facebook.
However really sad news.

We should all be lucky enough to live to 92.
Since the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I'm sure Mr. Padavona was a really cool guy. |

I was thinking the same thing.
And every single day, as I did the last 28, I whisper a song of Ronnie's and sometimes get sad as I realise he past away and I wont see him on stage again

I had heard that it was another man w/the same name. Can anyone confirm this?

| That would be odd. That doesn't seem to be a very common name. |
