TORONTO — Canadian rock musician Jeff Healey has died, according to his publicist.
His website says the 41-year-old succumbed the cancer that he had fought since birth and that claimed his eyesight at the age of one.
Healey's distinctive guitar playing style and Blues-influenced singing earned him a reputation as a musical prodigy while he was still in his teens.
He shared the stage with such rock luminaries as Albert Collins, Stevie Ray Vaughan and B.B. King.
He went on to front the Jeff Healey Band, an award-winning Canadian act that sold over a million albums in the United States.
Healy was 41, and leaves his wife, Cristie, daughter Rachel (13) and son Derek (three), as well as his father and step-mother, Bud and Rose Healey, and sisters Laura and Linda.
Funeral and memorial arrangements are pending.

As night time looms upon me
I will look into the sky
Unanswered questions in my mind
Why dear God oh why
∗.....∗.....∗.....∗
You have taken someone precious
Way past the stars above
To a beautiful place called Heaven
Dear God i miss their love
∗.....∗.....∗.....∗
God you've really hurt me
Something you said you'd never do
Now a part of me is missing
Im so sorry i blamed you
∗.....∗.....∗.....∗
Oh God please forgive me
For my heart feels very sore
Just let my Angels wait for me
When i walk through Heavens door
