Moonglum25 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Sad news that Neil has passed away due to a long battle with brain cancer. An astonishing drummer and excellent lyracist he will be sadly missed. His illness was probably known when the band decided to call it a day.

geddyalexneil Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Still gutted at the news. Rush were and are the soundtrack of my life! He stayed a private individual to the day he passed. Feel absolutely gutted for his wife and his little girl. Part of the reason for retirement was so that unlike his first daughter who sadly died when she was 19 and he had missed so much of her growing up, that he would be there for Olivia as she did. For him to then pass 5 years later having spent 3 years or more suffering from brain cancer just seems so unfair! I also feel for the guys in the band who have lost not only a band mate but a friend. RIP Neil. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
