Eddie Van Halen, one of rock music's greatest guitar players and a founding member of the hard-rocking, top-selling band named after him and his drummer brother, died of cancer on Tuesday. He was 65.
Van Halen's death was announced on Twitter by his 29-year-old son, Wolfgang, himself a bass player who joined the band in later years. Representatives for Eddie Van Halen directed Reuters to his son's statement.
"I can't believe I'm having to write this but my father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen, has lost his long and arduous battle with cancer this morning," Wolfgang Van Halen said in the tweet.
"He was the best father I could ever ask for," the younger Van Halen said. "Every moment I've shared with him on and off stage was a gift."
Actress Valerie Bertinelli, Eddie Van Halen's former wife of 26 years and Wolfgang's mother, retweeted the Twitter statement by her son.
