Jimmy Buffett‘s cause of death has been revealed. An official obituary posted on his website, shared that the “Margaritaville” singer died after four year battle with Merkel cell carcinoma — a skin cancer.
“The beloved singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett passed away at his home in Sag Harbor, Long Island on Friday September 1, 2023 surrounded by family and friends. Buffett, 76, had been fighting Merkel Cell Skin Cancer for four years. He continued to perform during treatment, playing his last show, a surprise appearance in Rhode Island, in early July,” the obituary read.
According to the Mayo Clinic, “Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare type of skin cancer that usually appears as a flesh-colored or bluish-red nodule, often on your face, head or neck. Merkel cell carcinoma is also called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. Merkel cell carcinoma most often develops in older people. Long-term sun exposure or a weak immune system may increase your risk of developing Merkel cell carcinoma. Merkel cell carcinoma tends to grow fast and to spread quickly to other parts of your body. Treatment options for Merkel cell carcinoma often depend on whether the cancer has spread beyond the skin.”
The news of his diagnosis comes after he was forced to reschedule a show in May, when he was hospitalized for an undisclosed medical condition.
Buffett, who died at the age of 76, was celebrated in the obituary for his career in music, but also the work he did as a New York Times best-selling author and businessman.
