"With a broken and heavy heart, I want to share that the love of my life, my best friend and husband, Jimmy, passed away Wednesday morning. He was not alone as I was with him along with a few close friends until the end. He will be truly missed and no one can ever replace the love I have for him. May he rest in peace.

Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours… My Immortal Beloved. I will see you again."




Dark Angel issued the following statement regarding their bandmate's death:

"We in the Dark Angel Family are deeply saddened and crushed today with the news of our brother and founder Jimmy Durkin passing away Wednesday morning.

We would like to thank his fans for their continuous loyalty and support. We will come out with a full statement very soon. We ask that you please respect the family’s privacy while we mourn the loss of this great man."


Jim Durkin played on Dark Angel's first three albums, returning in 2013 where he has remained to this day.
