Rock legend Jerry Lee Lewis has passed away; he was 87.
According to Fox News, the rock ‘n roll pioneer passed away after suffering from various illnesses throughout the years, his publicist wrote in a press release Friday.
“He was there at the beginning, with Elvis, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Carl Perkins, Fats Domino, Buddy Holly, and the rest, and watched them fade away one by one till it was him alone to bear witness, and sing of the birth of rock ‘n’ roll,” the release added.
“‘Who would have thought,’ he said, near the end of his days, ‘it would be me?’”
