R.I.P. Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan

Jim "The Rev" Sullivan

As 2009 comes to an end, the deaths do not. Today, I learned that the drummer of Avenged Sevenfold passed yesterday. Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan was only 28. It is so sad to hear of anyone passing, let alone a famous person, and also someone so young.

The band has released a comment of his passing ""It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we tell you of the passing today of Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan. Jimmy was not only one of the world's best drummers, but more importantly he was our best friend and brother. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmy's family and we hope that you will respect their privacy during this difficult time."

So far the authorities say it is from natural causes. There will be an autospy. I will keep you updated as the story unfolds.
