Joey Russ 7,263 Posted September 20, 2017 My guess would be that he's legitimately dead, but her family wanted to have privacy for a while but his daughter didn't get the memo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 8,043 Posted September 20, 2017 12 minutes ago, Joey Russ said: I thought you would know that site is always a hoax by now...

As for the Aging Bull, that the news hasn't gone mainstream already is a bit surprising but that IBTimes article refers to two different family members Facebooks so in goes a presumptive "Dead" tag... if turns out otherwise it can always be rescinded.
