LFO singer Devin Lima died on Wednesday, November 21, Us Weekly confirms. He was 41.
Lima (real name Harold Lima) had been diagnosed with stage IV adrenal cancer in October 2017. His bandmate Brad Fischetti announced the news in a YouTube video to fans at the time.
“Devin asked me to give you this update without him because, frankly, he’s just not feeling very well,” Fischetti, 43, said in the video. “But he asked me to send you his love and gratitude for all the love and prayers you guys have sent his way. He’s had a tough recovery. He had a few really difficult days in the hospital.”
Fischetti revealed that the cancer had spread to Lima’s kidney, which doctors surgically removed, and that he planned to undergo chemotherapy and radiation.
“I wish we had better news to share,” Fischetti said in the 2017 video. “It’s devastating news, but at the same time, there’s nobody I know stronger than Devin Lima. No one has a stronger body, mind or soul.”
LFO are best known for their 1999 single “Summer Girls.” Their other hits include “Girls on TV” and “Every Other Time.” In July 2017, the band released their first new song in 15 years, titled “Perfect 10.”
The trio’s lead singer, Rich Cronin, died at age 36 in September 2010 after a long battle with leukemia.

I'm so sad to hear this. R.I.P. What a strange coincidence that today's round of 2009 hits should be the week of September 12, 2009 - where Summer Of My Life peaked at #8 for me. Just seconds after looking at my chart from the only time LFO ever had a top 10 for me - I saw this post and the news of Devin's passing. It's not even 20 years since they were big - they don't even qualify for nostalgia until next summer - and yet 2 of them are already gone

This is so sad. They were both so young. @wife is right - less than 20 years later only 1 left RIP
