"Jimmy and I were diagnosed with cancer about the same time. It was four years ago and Jimmy was actually diagnosed first," Laurie told the outlet."When Jimmy found out [I had cancer] he brought the whole family and the dogs to Montana to be with me."
"Jimmy and I became closer because of our cancers," said Laurie, who is now cancer-free after undergoing treatment."We talked before and after our scans... We shared a club that nobody wants to join."The singer died on Sept. 1,"Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of Sept. 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs," read a statement posted to the singer's social media pages late Friday.
