miles and I ran into him at namm one year. He was really nice. He was very nice to his fans and I saw him talk to every man woman and child in line. I was not a huge fan of his stuff but he seemed like a genuinely nice person.

Well I was a huge fan. Heaven and Hell was one of my favorite albums back in the day. He'll be missed.

He was a cool little dude. I never met him, but people that I know who have said that he was just a nice fella. Not stuck-up like some folks. And he was rockin' til the end. He had a tour scheduled this summer if he hadn't died. I should be so energetic when I am 67!

The first time I saw him was in a band called ELF.
They were the opening act for Deep Purple.

Ditto what Alpep stated above. When I first saw the way he was chatting with people I initially thought they were mostly his friends, until a few moments later when I got to chat with him and realized, that's just how he was. He treated every fan, every person, like they were part of his family, even engaging young ones (like really little kids in tow by their moms) in just general "how's school" "are you having fun here today" "what's your favorite music" "what have you done since you've been here"

He will be missed by so so many..

"Dio has rocked, for a long, long time. Now it's time for him to pass the torch. He has songs, of wildebeasts and danger. He has soared on the wings of the demons." Tenacious D

Plus he invented metal hands. RIP.
