Friends, family and fellow musicians are sharing their love and memories of Meat Loaf, the rock superstar known for the iconic «Bat Out of Hell» album who died Thursday at 74. The loss of the singer, born Marvin Lee Aday, was announced Friday in a family statement posted on his official Facebook page. «Our hearts are broken to announce that the incomparable Meat Loaf passed away tonight,» the statement read. «We know how much he meant to so many of you and we truly appreciate all of the love and support as we move through this time of grief in losing such an inspiring artist and beautiful man… From his heart to your souls… don’t ever stop rocking!» The rocker’s daughter Amanda Aday told People that she and sister Pearl Aday rushed to Nashville after learning that their father’s health «was declining very rapidly, more rapidly than expected.» «As soon as we could, we just went to his bedside at the hospital and just sat with him and held his hand,» Aday told the outlet, recalling her father as a «complex man with a lot of passion, who wore his heart on his sleeve,» and someone with a colorful personality – the kind of person to throw in an expletive before saying «I love you,» she said.
