Jimmy Buffett’s cause of death<\/a> has been revealed.<\/p>\n

The legendary singer had been “fighting Merkel Cell Skin Cancer for four years,” according to an official obituary for the star posted to his website. Merkel cell carcinoma is a very rare disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the skin, according to the National Cancer Institute<\/a>. The site states that “sun exposure and having a weak immune system can affect the risk of Merkel cell carcinoma.”<\/p>\n

The obituary noted that Buffett “continued to perform during treatment, playing his last show, a surprise appearance in Rhode Island, in early July.”<\/p>\n
