Date of Death

Could people please stop try and add a death date, as it hasn't been revealed yet. The only thing we know is that he died in his sleep "over the weekend", as mentioned in the official statement by his wife on his personal website :

Eric Carmen
(1949-2024)
It is with tremendous sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Eric Carmen.
Our sweet, loving and talented Eric passed away in his sleep, over the weekend.
It brought him great joy to know, that for decades, his music touched so many and will be his lasting legacy.
Please respect the family’s privacy as we mourn our enormous loss.
“Love Is All That Matters...Faithful and Forever”

He supported Trump

NJ.com: Legendary singer/songwriter, who faced widespread backlash for supporting Trump, dies at 74 I think this support should be included in the Personal life section. —⁠71.105.243.101 (talk) 20:04, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
