Issac Hayes passes away
ore sad news from over the weekend as soul musician Isaac Hayes passed away on Sunday. He was 65. Steve Shular, spokesman for the Shelby County (TN) Sheriff's Office, told People magazine:
"The family had last seen [Isaac] about noon. Family members had gone to the grocery store and left him home. When the family came home around 1, his wife's cousin found him lying on the floor in the basement near a treadmill. The treadmill was running, so it is believed that he had been working out. There doesn't seem to be any foul play," says Shular. "We don't see anything suspicious about his death. There will be a further statement from the hospital about the cause of death." (Source)
