My mother was pretty shocked with the news.
She told me that she met him back in the 70's/80's or so and he was a very kind and modest man. He only had one record out at the time and wasn't very famous. My mother was working as a Nurse and his mother was in the hospital dying of cancer. He used to visit every night, and would make small talk with the nurses, my mother included.
He used to bring food and drink to the nurses and doctors who were working at the time. My mother told me that she used to discuss how working in shoes that nurses wear were a pain and really killed their feet. When his mother finally passed, he bought ever Nurse at the hospital a pair of expensive clarks shoes so they could wear them instead of the ones they currently wear.
He was a very kind man, and while I didn't listen to any of his music he deserves respect. May he rest in peace.
