US singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett, best known for his 1970’s hit Margaritaville, has died aged 76.
“Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1 surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs,” said a statement on his website.
The cause of death has been given as Merkel Cell Carcinoma, a type of Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the skin.

Many people in US and elsewhere will have heard of Jimmy and love his music. I vividly remember going into the Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville in Universal Orlando Resort CityWalk and found his music very pleasant to listen to.
RIP Jimmy, your name and music lives on!

Clearly, if you have a PayPal account, the process is much simpler
