KISS Head of Security
Dies After ‘Brutal Fight’ With Cancer
Published
KISS has suffered another blow … Danny Francis, the legendary band’s head of security, has passed away.
Co-lead vocalist, Paul Stanley, 73, made the announcement on X, writing, “Danny Francis, my dear friend, assistant and so much more for 30 years of tours and life has died after a brutal fight with liver cancer. He was loved by Erin and all my children and his kindness was given to everyone he came in contact with. My condolences to his entire family.”
This comes as Stanley and the rest of the band are still mourning the sudden loss of guitarist Ace Frehley.
We broke the story … Ace was hospitalized after falling and hitting his head at the studio last month, causing a brain bleed. His family made the difficult decision to take him off life support about over a week ago. He was 74.
The silver lining of all this tragic loss is it seems to be bringing the former bandmates together after their “farewell” tour in 2023. The surviving members, Gene Simmons, Stanley, and Peter Criss, congregated to pay their respects to Ace at his private funeral.
At the time, radio DJ and close friend of the band Eddie Trunk, posted, “All of the services went as well as they could and were attended by a small group of family and close friends … His family did give me the okay to pursue a tribute show/fan celebration at some point.”
