Quincy Jones’ cause of death revealed: report


Quincy Jones’ cause of death has been revealed.

The music mogul died from pancreatic cancer, according to TMZ.

The outlet obtained a copy of Jones’ death certificate released by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, which listed the disease as Jones’ official cause of death.

The document reportedly did not list any other factors that contributed to the 28-time Grammy winner’s passing.

Jones died on Nov. 3 at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family. He was 91.

The music icon’s publicist Arnold Robinson confirmed the news on Nov. 4.

“Tonight, with full but broken hearts, we must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones’ passing,” Robinson said in a statement.

“And although this is an incredible loss for our family, we celebrate the great life that he lived and know there will never be another like him.”

Jones — who worked with the likes of Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles and Ella Fitzgerald — was laid to rest in a private funeral on Nov. 10.

All seven of his children — Jolie, 71; Rachel, 61; Martina, 58; Quincy III, 55; Kidada, 50; Rashida, 48; and Kenya, 31 — along with Jones’ brother, two sisters attended the “intimate ceremony” in Los Angeles, according to a statement the family shared with The Associated Press.

The family added that they were “enormously grateful for the outpouring of condolences and tributes from his friends and fans from around the world.”

A public memorial is also planned for a later date, according to the statement.
