Beach Boys co-founder, singer and songwriter, Brian Wilson passed away earlier this month.
He was 82.
“We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. We are at a loss for words right now. Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving. We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world,” Brian Wilson’s family said on Instagram.
Wilson’s family did not immediately disclose a cause of death. Wilson reportedly suffered from dementia.
According to TMZ, Brian Wilson’s death certificate listed “respiratory arrest” as his cause of death. Sepsis and cystitis were also listed.
TMZ reported:
Brian Wilson had multiple respiratory issues when he passed away … and, now we know the reason why he simply stopped breathing.
TMZ has obtained the death certificate for Wilson … which lists “respiratory arrest” as his main cause of death. According to the American CPR Care Association, respiratory arrest occurs when the heart is still beating, but the lungs stop functioning, making it impossible for the person to get oxygen.
Sepsis and cystitis — infection issues — are also listed on the document … and, associated factors include neurodegenerative disorder, obstructive sleep apnea, chronic respiratory failure and chronic kidney disease.
Basically, Brian was an older individual who wasn’t in great health … and, he died of natural causes. His family announced last year he was suffering from dementia.
