Eddie's son, Wolfgang, posted the following on Twitter:
“I can't believe I'm having to write this, but my father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halener, has lost his long and arduous battle with cancer this morning.
He was the best father I could ask for. Every moment I've shared with him on and off stage was a gift.
My heart is broken and I don't think I'll ever fully recover from this loss.
I love you so much, Pop."
The rock community will undoubtedly be in utter shock for some time to come. KNAC.COM sends its condolences to the entire VAN HALEN family.
