Voivod Guitarists Dies Of Colon Cancer


Voivod Voivod guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour passed away Friday night (August 26) at 11:45 p.m. due to complications from colon cancer. D'Amour slipped into a coma Thursday night and died less than 24 hours later at Montreal hospital, surrounded by family and friends. He was 45 years old.

Quebec City newspaper Le Soleil reported yesterday that D'Amour - who was diagnosed with colon cancer earlier in the summer - first entered the hospital for a routine operation, but several complications led his doctors to suspect more problems. Then the grim verdict was revealed: the cancer, already too advanced, was inoperable.
