Gerald's final studio album "In My Words" will be in stores on February 13, in time for Valentine's Day. I went to the Black Voices webistes and read that his death was ruled accidental. When he died, they stated that he died of an apparent heart attack. The coroner did toxicology tests on him. The tests revealed that Gerald had in his system Vicodin, Percocet, Darvocet, Xanax, and two antihistamines. The cause of death was acute intoxication. It was a fatal mix of prescription and over-the-counter medication. Gerald was taking medicine for chronic pain from a lingering shoulder problem. He had surgery in 2005 to repair a severed Achilles tendon. Gerald also has pneumonia. He took Xanax for anxiety attacks. When I first read this, I was totally shocked. I had no idead Gerald was going through so much. I hope his fans don't judge him because of this. Gerald should be remembered as a greal soul singer whose music and legecy will live on. What are your opinions?
