He was 41.<\/p>\n<p>He died early Wednesday morning after a year-long battle with stage 4 cancer, the band&rsquo;s publicist confirmed to variety.com.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It is with a truly broken heart that that I confirm that Harold &lsquo;Devin&rsquo; Lima passed away early this morning after a valiant battle with caner,&rdquo; LFO&rsquo;s Brad Fischetti said in a statement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Fischetti added, &ldquo;Devin, as the world knows him, was an extraordinary talent, a doting father to his six children, and a loving partner to their mother. He was a beloved son and brother and a friend to so many. On behalf of the LFO family, thank you for the tremendous outpouring of love from friends, family, fans, media, and those in the music industry.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;A few days before he passed away, he said to me, &lsquo;Bro, when it is over, just tell them I disappeared.&rsquo; My friends &#8211; Harold &lsquo;Devin&rsquo; Lima has disappeared.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>LFO, which gained popularity in the 1990s, consisted of Lima and Fischetti.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The pop group was initially a trio, with lead singer Rich Cronin, but disbanded in 2010 after his death to leukemia at the age of 35.<\/p>\n<p>Lima (born Harold Lima) and Fischetti reunited and resumed touring in 2017. They recently released their first new song in 15 years, &ldquo;Perfect 10.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The duo was set to commence touring earlier this year, but put their plans on hold when Lima was hospitalized in late 2017 after doctors discovered a tumor &ldquo;the size of a football&rdquo; on his adrenal gland. The cancer spread to Lima&rsquo;s kidney, which had to be removed.
