Justin Cary has sadly passed away at the age of 50.
The bassist for the rock band Sixpence None the Richer died on Thursday (June 18) after suffering a “serious stroke” last week.
Friends launched a GoFundMe page to support Justin and his wife Linda amid his time in the hospital. An update on Thursday revealed that he passed away.
“Justin passed peacefully this morning and Linda was next to him please continue to pray and give strength during this very difficult time,” the fundraiser organizer posted.
Sixpence None the Richer lead singer Leigh Nash paid tribute to Justin in a post on Instagram.
“‘We sure had a great time’ is an understatement. Thank you, Justin. We love you forever. Please keep his dear Linda close to your hearts. She is our family. There’s never been anybody like Justin,” she wrote in a post.
Sixpence None the Richer rose to prominence in the 1990s with their hit songs “Kiss Me” and “There She Goes.”
